    Three High-Leverage Classroom Practices for Student Success - Dr Adam Feinberg

    Which classroom practices provide the strongest foundation for student success? In this episode of Behavioural Deep Dive, I’m joined by Dr Adam Feinberg to explore three of the most impactful classroom practices educators can use to support student learning, behaviour, and wellbeing. Together, we discuss how clear expectations, effective routines, and behaviour-specific feedback help create the conditions for learning. Adam shares practical examples from his work supporting schools and systems through Multi-Tiered Systems of Support (MTSS), highlighting how these evidence-informed practices can create classrooms that are predictable, supportive, and engaging for all students. We also explore the connection between positive classroom practices, student belonging, emotional regulation, and mental health, and discuss why creating safe and predictable learning environments is a critical component of supporting both academic and behavioural success. Whether you're a teacher, school leader, school psychologist, behaviour specialist, or anyone interested in improving outcomes for students, this episode offers practical insights that can be applied immediately within educational settings.

    Student Motivation and Acknowledgement Systems - Jennifer Payne

    In this episode of Behavioural Deep Dive, I sit down with Jennifer Payne, teacher, psychologist, and Director of Rypple, to unpack student motivation, acknowledgement systems, and some of the common misconceptions around rewards in schools. We explore the difference between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, the research often linked to the “rewards undermine motivation” debate, and how acknowledgement systems can be used to support behavioural skill development over time. Jennifer reframes acknowledgement systems as more than simply reward systems, describing them instead as a way to assess behavioural skills and prompt adults to use effective practices such as specific positive feedback. We also discuss how acknowledgement systems can be used as a data based decision making tool to better understand student behaviour, guide teaching, and strengthen implementation of positive classroom practices within schools. We also unpack self determination theory, including the role of relatedness, autonomy, and competence in helping students move from external regulation towards greater independence and self regulation. A practical and thoughtful conversation for educators, school leaders, and anyone interested in behaviour support, motivation, and positive school culture. For full show notes, click here.

    Function-Based Thinking in Schools - Dr Russ Fox

    In the first episode of the Behavioural Deep Dive, I sit down with Dr Russ Fox to explore function-based thinking and how it can be applied in classroom settings. Russ describes behaviour as something that is shaped by the environment, emphasising that students are always responding to what is happening around them. The conversation explores how being curious about what occurs before and after behaviour can help educators better understand why students respond the way they do, and what that behaviour may be doing for them in that context. A key idea discussed is that behaviour is adaptive, even when it is costly. Rather than viewing behaviour as something that sits within the student, Russ outlines a way of thinking that focuses on the interaction between the student and their environment, and how this can inform more effective support. The episode also explores how this thinking applies to classroom practice, including how teachers can better support and respond to student behaviour across academic tasks, social situations, and classroom expectations, and make small adjustments to support success. This is a practical conversation for educators looking to deepen their understanding of student behaviour and apply strategies that are grounded in how behaviour works within real classroom environments.

    Introduction

    In this debut episode, host Jake Lewis introduces the Behavioural Deep Dive, a podcast exploring the systems and habits that drive high performance in schools, teams, and organisations. Jake makes the case that the most effective teams aren't just the hardest working, but the best designed, and outlines his mission to bridge behaviour science research with practical, real-world strategies.
