The Difference
Most Patterns Get Spotted Too Late, or Never.
Admins don’t have time to dig through behavior data. So most patterns only come to light after something serious happens, and some never surface at all.

FAQs – Behavior Insights
PBIS tracking is how schools record positive and corrective behaviors to see whether their PBIS framework is working. It usually covers praise, guidance, and the students and staff involved. In Minga, staff log behaviors in three clicks, and Behavior Insights turns that data into answers about your campus, your students, and your team.
A good PBIS tracking system makes logging fast for staff and turns the data into clear answers for admins. Look for praise and guidance tracking, a praise-to-guidance ratio, top behaviors, trends over time, and student-level trends. Minga includes all of these in one dashboard, with staff usage insights.
Many PBIS frameworks recommend five positive interactions for every corrective one. The right target depends on your school. Minga shows your school’s praise-to-guidance ratio, the ratio individual students are receiving, and the ratio each teacher on your campus is giving out.
Behavior data shows which students are trending the wrong way before a pattern becomes a crisis, and which groups are not receiving praise. Minga’s student trends highlight shining stars and students who need support, so counselors and admins can step in early instead of waiting for referrals to pile up.
Track both sides: positive behaviors like praise and participation, and corrective ones like tardies and disruptions, along with who was involved and when. Together, that shows how balanced recognition is, which behaviors are most common, how things change over time, and whether every student is part of the system.
Look for a healthy praise-to-guidance ratio, fewer repeat behaviors over time, praise reaching most students, and consistent use across staff. If a small group of teachers is carrying the program, or the same students keep receiving guidance, it is time to adjust. Minga Behavior Insights surfaces these answers in one place.
Staff buy-in shows up in the data: who logs behaviors, who has never assigned one, who started strong and dropped off, and how balanced each teacher’s praise and guidance are. Minga’s Staff Usage view brings this together, so you can recognize champions and support staff who need help.
Behavior Insights is included in the Minga Plus plan. It surfaces campus-level and student-level answers from the behaviors your staff already log. Staff Usage of Behavior, which shows adoption, balance, coverage, and champions across your team, is also part of the Plus plan.
