Interventions
BCCU professional development (PD) modules will be provided to all staff in intervention schools as part of their standard, school-approved professional development practices to provide knowledge and awareness for bullying identification, prevention, and intervention. In addition, consented 3rd-5th grade teachers will participate in the BCCU intervention. The coaching follows the original Classroom Check-Up model (Reinke, Herman, \& Sprick, 2011), embedding 5 steps (i.e., assessment of the classroom, feedback to teacher, goal setting and plan, ongoing coaching and guided practice in the TeachLivE© mixed-reality simulator \[developed at the University of Central Florida (UCF); Dieker, Hynes, Hughes, \& Smith, 2008\], and self-monitoring) and utilizing motivational interviewing (Miller \& Rollnick, 2012) to empower teacher practice change.
