What will I learn on this module?
This module enables you to develop the knowledge, skills and values required to understand the Principles of the Positive Behavioural Support (PBS) approach to support someone with autism/a learning disability who displays behaviour that challenges. It enables you to meet the requirements of a Northumbria Award and evidence relevant competencies identified in the PBS Coalition Competence Framework (2015) nationally recognised as best practice.
The module helps you to critically analyse the meaning and impact of Learning Disability and Autism, the causes of challenging behaviour and the use of a functional approach to understanding behaviour as a key concept of positive behavioural support. You will explore and critique the theory and context of PBS as a way of improving quality of life and reducing behaviour that challenges. You will develop your understanding of the importance of values-based support for people with a learning disability which acknowledges them as individuals, ensures choice and participation in their own lives and treats them with dignity and respect. You will analyse the factors affecting behaviour to identify why someone may display behaviours that challenge and understand the purpose and development process of behaviour support plans (BSP) to improve quality of life and ensure the least restrictive support strategies are used. The module helps you appreciate the importance of working together with the person, their family and other workers to assess, plan and develop behaviour support plans, understand your own role and contribution to the process and how to support the person and each other.
How will I learn on this module?
This module is provided via a blended learning approach - a mix of e-learning, guided study, face to face and supervised work-based learning. A range of learning resources are available via the e-learning portal including, Skills Plus, a collection of learning resources to help you study and exceptional library services with remote access to materials. You will also have opportunity and be encouraged to debate and discuss PBS in the context of health and social practice with lecturers and peers within classroom sessions. You will learn alongside other students through an interactive and engaging classroom environment, facilitated by academic staff. There is opportunity for you to reflect and review your progress on the module with the module team, with peers, and Module Leader (ML).
Practical workshops help you access and use the, learning resources including e learning and formative assessment exercises and feedback. You will be engaged in critical analysis and appraisal of the evidence base for PBS and share your learning in peer group seminars and discussion. Enquiry and scenario-based learning enables you to develop your understanding of why behaviour occurs and how to minimise that through effective planning and use of active support. You will use reflective learning based upon your own experience of supporting people to develop a better understanding of why challenging behaviour may occur in people with a learning disability and /or autism how behaviour is influenced by many factors including personal values, and how challenging behaviour can be minimised through proactive planning, teaching of new skills and use of active support.
You will apply your learning to undertake a summative assessment which requires you to assess why challenging behaviour may occur in the people you work with, critically analyse the theory and context of positive behavioural support, functional behavioural assessment and behaviour support planning. You will also be required to demonstrate relevant competencies from the PBS Competence Framework (PBS Coalition 2015).
How will I be supported academically on this module?
You will be supported by the module team and PBS regional workplace development and practice managers who will guide your learning and assessment throughout the module. They have been involved in developing the programme, the e-learning materials and assessment exercises, and will provide some of your teaching and feedback on your progress in the classroom and practice-based context.
Support can be accessed face to face, by telephone or email.
