Assessor’s feedback:

Assessment:
Assessor’s Signature (optional) : Dated: “To provide the best learning environment for their students, teachers need to have good classroom management skills” (Pass, 2007). For teachers to be effective in their role they need to have in place different models of behaviour management. Behaviour management is important not only for the teacher to be able to teach but also so that all students are in an environment that they can learn and feel safe (Cope, 2005). There are three main theories when it comes to discipline and behaviour they are Management Theories, Leadership Theories and Non-directive Intervention Theories. Discipline and management theories can vary in approach, some expect the teacher to develop a better understanding of their students on a personal level, in a way in which they may find out the underlying cause to the students

    “Classroom management should be designed to reflect behavioral expectations and create an atmosphere in which student self-esteem can flourish (Canter, 1992). Educators have the right to maintain optimal learning in an environment free of disruption. Students also have rights as learners to learn in an appropriate environment free of bias and disruptions. In the past, the term discipline has been used to refer to classroom management, but it implied a negative connotation that is equated with punishment. Instead, it should address their future decisions. According…

    Assertive Classroom Model

    As the name suggests, the teacher controls students in an assertive manner as classroom leader. Central to Assertive Discipline is the principle that students require definitive rules and structure to control behaviours and an authoritative teacher to ensure compliance (Lyons et al., 2014). In the Assertive Discipline classroom the teacher is responsible for providing students with explicit teaching of rules, and the positive and negative consequences that apply to obedience or misbehaviour (Lyons et al., 2014). Consequences for noncompliance are set based on a “discipline hierarchy” (Charles, 2013, p. 43) where the ramifications of misbehaviour increase with each…

    Classroom management styles vary from teacher to teacher. Some follow one method while others pick and choose what works for them from a variety of methods. Certain methods work better on different ages of students such as elementary, middle or high school students and some are good for all age levels. Deciding what approach would work best in their classroom is a personal choice that requires taking many things into consideration. Five classroom management strategies are Wong’s Pragmatic Classroom, Lee Canter’s Behavior Management Cycle, Kagan, Kyle and Scott’s Win-Win, Morrish’s Real Discipline and Curwin and Mendler’s Discipline with Dignity. All of these are useful in the classroom just some are better suited to different grade levels.…

    I agree with Kagan, Kyle, and Scott’s theory in the aspect that it is beneficial for teachers to develop ways that will disengage disruptive behavior in the classroom. Teachers must be able to distinguish which behaviors the students are engaged in and be able to appropriately correct the situation because the student’s behavior will escalate if not handled…

    In order for teachers to be effective in the classroom they need to be knowledgeable in core subjects and the method of teaching, as well as able to manage their classroom. Managing is a procedure and is necessary for a learning environment to be present. When procedures are explained and practiced by students and periodically reinforced by practicing again, classroom management is enhanced (Marshall, 2005). Teachers must also be able to manage and redirect the students when they misbehave. When a child misbehaves an effective teacher will already have a list of disciplines in place to help improve…

    Classroom management is closely linked to issues of motivation, discipline and respect. Methodologies remain a matter of passionate debate amongst teachers; approaches vary depending on the beliefs a teacher holds regarding educational psychology. A large part of traditional classroom management involves behavior modification, although many teachers see using behavioral approaches alone as overly simplistic. Many teachers establish rules and procedures at the beginning of the school year. According to Gootman (2008), rules give students concrete direction to ensure that our expectation becomes a reality (Gootman, Marilyn E., 2008, p.36). They also try to be consistent in enforcing these…
