This course offers practical and applicable ways to "use every tool in the tool box"
Criticize the behavior, not the individual!
It provides tools and methods to offer discipline.
This lesson will help me deal with those students who disrupt the class. I was always worried about how to handle those students the professional way. This has really helped me because I do not really like confrontation so this lesson showed me how to interact with those kinds of students
These were some great tips on managing classroom and student behaviors. When you think you've seen it all, the next problem child comes along.
In this module I learned about managing classroom behavior with disruptive students. The Adult learner is different than a child learner. We must treat the adult with dignity and demonstrate understanding for good classroom management. I like the tip about giving the student a note rather than reprimanding them in front of the whole class. The tip on handling tardy students was also useful and can help to stop the behavior. I have encountered many of these classroom behavior issues and maintaining my composure, being respectful and being consistent, were the keys to gaining control of the classroom.
this is such a good lesson!
Sure wish I would have had this information two weeks ago when I had a highly disruptive and confrontational student act inappropriately in my class. As luck would have it, being a new teacher, I did not have the tools to handle it appropriately and now I'm seeing why it didn't go that well. Darn it for my poor timing!
Great informaton presented here. One thing I would like to add is maybe instructors could utilize the "annnoucement" section in their online platform (i.e. blackboard or canvas). They can post an annoucement about students disrupting or coming to class late/leaving early. This way the individual student is not singled out and they feel embarrassed.
I learned useful strategies to deal with potential classroom issues while also maintaining your professionalism and respect for students. Setting clear expecatations and remaining consistent will help minimize issues with students.
classroom management can be applied tactfully and with dignity. If there is a time when a student verbally abuses, it's time for that student to be excused politely from class.
The presentation embraces a "don't wait" persepctive. I appreciate that.
This course taught me how to be better with discipline within the classroom.
This presentation is greatly appreciated. I have learned other means of handling disruptive behaviors, especially with the adult learners. It is quite challenging to educate adult learners due to their set ways, but as instructors, we need to guide them to be better if they chose to become better. The different approaches that were identified in handling the disruptive individual/s, will assist the student/person to appreciate thier instructor/s for caring and attempting to determine the cause of their action/s. Afterall, we chose this professional to assist the students in fulfilling their goals and be successful. Indeed, we cannot ignore the improper behaviors, we must address it, don't be confrontational, don't lose your compusure, seek assitance if you need to in handling the individual's behavior/s.
Classroom discipline is important if an instructor wants his/her class to run smoothly and effectively. Confronting various distracting behaviors: tardiness, sleeping or talking in class, or angry students is something that instructors will encounter, I certainly have. Learning how to confront these behaviors in a positive way is essential to helping all students succeed. I have learned some addition measures to employ in helping my students to reach their goals.
I appreciated the examples and the options, providing practical suggestions for how to manage the classroom.
This course show me better ways to handle behavioral problems.
