  Case: Calling Out for Attention
In a class I was an intern for, a young girl would randomly call out information. Clearly, the stunts were for attention, as she would talk about her personal life whenever given the opportunity (or not). The teacher of the class tried to combat by reminding the student to not share personal information and not to call aloud unless called upon, but the behavior persisted. Eventually, the child's behavior became a lot less mild after talking with counselors for some time. What else could be done for these types of behaviors?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
A consequence should be enforced for the student because she is disrupting class time and prohibiting learning.
