Easy-read text book for my university course 
2007-09-22
This is a great book as far as textbooks go. It is easy to read, very informative and has good tables and figures for developing behavioral objectives. I think this will also be a great reference in the future for other classes or even a Master's or Doctoral thesis. I will be keeping this textbook in my "library" as I feel that it will serve me well now and in the future.
Reduced Price Makes Text A More Reasonable Buy

I noticed a significant drop in price for this textbook. Therefore I'd like to revise my rating up to four stars. Schloss and Smith do provide a fine review of ABA in the classroom. Its a good solid elementary text. True some topics are not covered, but perhaps there will be a more advanced text in the future.

Its a fairly decent review of behavior analysis applied to theclassroom. I'd give it a higher score if it didn't cost $.. for a 300page cheaply made paperback. There is not much new in this book that hasn't been published elsewhere. Also, there isn't a lot of practical information for a teacher working for a school district. It's a typical undergrad college text. The book doesn't go far enough. For example, there is a section on group contingencies in the classroom, but no mention of "Learnball". Not much on discrete trial training either. Direct Instruction is mentioned, but the instructional strategy behind programs such as Reading Mastery and Connecting Math Concepts isn't discussed. There is a lot of excellent information in the book, its just that for cost I expected a lot more.
