Chapter 9 of Herrell's work discusses how an individual contract can transform student behaviors, enhance work habits, and improve interactions. The process involves a step-by-step approach: identify specific behaviors or goals, engage the student in dialogue, establish incentives, draft the contract, monitor progress, and acknowledge accomplishments. By transitioning from extrinsic to intrinsic motivation, teachers can create a more engaging learning environment. This chapter also provides a classroom exercise to practice developing contracts through simulation of problem behaviors among various grade levels.
