| Abstract | This study reports on the results of a classroom management system designed to facilitate academic performance in elementary school children. The management system is applicable to an entire class, is operable by one teacher, is cost-free, shows improvement of the student's academic performance, and takes into account individual differences in students' academic performance. Twenty-two third-grade students considered to be low-average in academic performance were given 25 arithmetic problems each week and were allowed to participate in recess activities, which were divided into three levels of desirability. Access to one or more levels during a given week was based on a comparison of individual in-class performance during the previous two weeks. A gain of 12 percent or a rise to 92 percent or higher allowed the subject to participate in any of the three levels of activity; a change of 11 percent restricted the subject to the lower two activity levels; and a decrease in performance of 12 percent or more restricted the subject to the least desirable activity level. Findings suggest that a cost-free behavior management system can be readily applied by one teacher to improve the academic performance of an entire class and that the emphasis upon individual improvement should be designed into future management programs in an attempt to maximize performance of all class members.
