Problem
Foundation in place: 10-20% of students will not be
successful
Solution?
Alternative: Targeted Interventions

•Efficient and effective
•For “yellow zone” students

Why does CICO Work?
For students
Program can be applied in all school locations
Acknowledgement for appropriate behavior
Linked school and home support
Program is organized to morph into self-monitoring
For Schools
Program requires minimal resources
Requires minimal time and effort from teachers
Can be easily modified to meet needs of multiple students
Incorporates data-based decision-making
Roles & Responsibilities
School team
Identify students who may benefit
Monitor implementation
Evaluate effects and modify/fade as needed
Coordinator
Facilitate morning and afternoon checks (in & out)
Get signed form from students, give new form
Maintain positive, constructive environment
Acknowledge successes
Teachers
Obtain form from student each day
Monitor student behavior and mark card accurately
Provide feedback to student in positive and constructive manner
Students
Check in and out each day
Give form to teacher
Meet expectations
Take form home and have parents sign, bring to school the next day

Monitoring CICO
Identified CICO Team
Identifies students who may benefits
Coordinates implementation
Reviews student progress
Makes modifications as needed
Data for decision making
Team must have access to data
Team reviews data at least bi-monthly
Monitoring Outcomes
Percent of possible points earned
Teacher-completed summaries

Summary of CICO
Using CICO data for decision-making
Possible Pitfalls: Things to plan for
Success—what next
CICO element
Variations/ options
Considerations
Educational/instructional assistant
School counselor
High school mentor
Consistency
Efficiency
One person or two
Freeing up time for person to do the job well
2. Check in/out routine
Come to school early
Leave class early
Same location/different locations
What about tardy students?
Missing instruction time
How does it work for busers, walkers, car
riders?
3. Point system and daily
report card
Numbers/words/smiley faces
0, 1, 2
1, 2, 3
great, OK, bad (difficult time)
Age appropriate
I get a point for being honest/ trying (1, 2 , 3)
4. Report home
Meet with parents individually as
part of the CICO training
Provide ideas for comments to write
back, things to say to student, how
to deal with a bad day
Staff mentor signs off if family
can’t
Parents might correct student again
Student may forge parent signature
5. Identifying students
to participate
Final recommendation by TAT
Review of ODRs, teacher concern,
family request, student request,
administrator request
Avoid making this a ‘punishment’
6. Staff training
A few at a time (start small to build
routine & success)
All at once
Efficiency in teaching time
Won’t remember unless using CICO
What happens when a student gets an office
discipline referral?
1. Coordinator(s)
CICO element
Variations/ options
Considerations
7. Student training
As a group
Individually
Daily prompts for routine the first
five days
What to do if staff/teacher isn’t
available
Teach students to remind staff/teachers to
use program
Loss of card during the day
8. Substitute staff
Train a back up check in and check
out person
Rotate roles so many people can
contribute as needed
Administrator
Front office staff for tardy
students
CICO cheat sheet for substitute
teacher folder
Lack of opportunity to maintain fluency,
positive practice, consistency
Prevent punitive approach
9. Point trading system
Spending schedule
Need a variation of items/activities
to fit many situations
Discounted school activities work
really well
Prizes/activities for whole class are
great for kids who like peer
attention
Too often
Not often enough
Student absent on spending day
Financial costs for rewards
Time costs for staff who are ‘earned’
10. Team meeting to
review student progress
Weekly data review, call a meeting
as needed
Email check in with
teachers/families
Coordinator not available/ no meeting… no
meeting/ no data review…. No data review..
program and/or kid get a bad name if it
doesn’t work
Modifying CICO
Peer attention: Provide peer attention for meeting
expectations
Task avoidance:
Check out with friend
Sit with friend(s) at lunch
Brief free time with friend at end or class
breaks, shorten work requirement
Access to assistance
Preferred work modality (e.g., groups)
Schedule of reinforcement
More frequent check-ins
Highly preferred coordinator
Pair attention with other rewards
Modifying CICO
Young children
Symbols
More frequent checks during day
Earn rewards more often
Potential Pitfalls
Fidelity
Assess teacher commitment/enthusiasm
Re-teach
Teacher self monitoring
Student won’t carry card
Student checks in and out
Coordinator provides card to teacher and picks up
Student continues to receive feedback from teacher
Self monitoring
Computerized system
Student isn’t checking in or out
Determine reason
Identify preferred person to check in/out with
Is this component needed?

Things Went Well… What Now?
Data-based decision-making
Ways to remove
Move to self-monitoring
Remove components
Self-Monitoring Interventions
Student monitors own behavior
Student “checks in” with teacher periodically to
review ratings and receive feedback
Self Monitoring After CICO
Expected behaviors stay the same
Reinforcers stay the same
Student checks in same amount of times
Student monitors behavior using CICO card
Plan for teaching accuracy in monitoring
Teaching Accuracy
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
Student and teacher record separately
Compare records; reinforce accuracy
Over time, compare less often
Reinforce appropriate behavior only
Periodically reinforce accuracy
Example: Lucy
Lucy has been on CICO for 3.5 months; she has earned 90% of
points each week for the last 10 weeks
Coordinator provides rationale for self monitoring to Lucy
Coordinator teaches Lucy to self monitor using examples and nonexamples
When program begins, Lucy’s teacher goes over examples and nonexamples
First week: Lucy and teacher monitor and compare records
Second week
Teacher provides acknowledgement and feedback based on accuracy
Ratings agree 95% of time
Teacher monitors appx. 60% of time; feedback based on accuracy
Feedback at other times based on Lucy’s monitoring of behavior
Coordinator
Feedback based on accuracy (with teacher records)
When Lucy monitors independently, feedback based on behavior
Things Went Well… What Now?
Data-based decision-making
Ways to remove
Move to self-monitoring
Remove components
Removing Components of CICO
Gradually decrease checks during the day (keep
check in and out)
Remove check out
Remove parent feedback
Remove check in
Monitor behavior throughout
