Dr. William Glasser is an internationally recognized psychiastrist who identified five innate needs we all have: 1) survival, 2) love/belonging, 3) power, 4) freedom/choice, and 5) fun that drive the behavior we choose. He has applied his theories to educational settings. One of his most well known successes where he applied his theories is with delinquent girls at the Ventura School in California. There are now a number of mainstream schools that have made a commitment to apply his theories in order to become a quality school. The following books Dr. Glasser has authored are great resources that everyone who wants to make a difference for Hispanic learners will want to read:
Choice Theory in the Classroom
Schools Without Failure
The Quality School
The Quality School Teacher
Every Student Can Succeed
