The strategies of dealing with Angry Students are godsend!

Dennis Eberly

You must deal with the disruptive student because it is not fair to the rest of the students to have the learning environment interrupted. 

Doug Blymier

This goes back to everything else, getting your students involved.  Making sure they are with you and understand the material is important.  You are only as good as your students.

Ryan Rodino

No matter how frustrated/confused/angry a student is it is important to always been the voice of calm and reason. As long as you are not making the matter worse the situation can be contained. Remember who is in charge. 

Sherrie Cisneros

Disputive students must be confronted for the sake of the other students. Set boundaries and always listen, encouraging a written compliant to difuse situation. 

Rita Armstrong

I have found that setting the tone from day one to include expectations, rules and policy is imperative. I have seen to many times where the faculty literally get ran over by the students. There is also no respect there. You do not have to be mean or cruel about it but there is a fine line to say I am the isntructor and you are the students and we are here for a common goal to see you scucceed in this course and program.

Carrie Gonzalez

Set clear expectations and listen to the students

Monica Fuller

I have learned how to diffuse a situation with a disruptive student or cheating student. This area of max knowledge has given some examples of ways of handeling a cheating student. Things to expect and how a situation like  this can be escalated to the administration or dismall of the program all together.  For a cheating student it is wise to review the spacing of desk in the classroom so there is no room for an accusation. Walk around the room during test taking time and just in general make sure that alll studens know and recognize that your paying attention and you are observing what is going on in class at all times.

Shayna Sykes

I have never considered that students with a "chip on their shoulder" might just be redirecting anger. Having the ability to recognize these students and presenting them with successful alternatives is imperative for a successful classroom.  This module also had excellent strategies the discourage and deal with cheating students. 

Frank Holiday

I have found that setting clear expectations for behavior, and consequences for not adhering to expectations helps to maintain order.  Fairness and consistency are the keys.

Learning to do the right thing if a student  is disruptive  could be challenging but  will pay of if things get better. 

Georgiana Bougher

I agree with not weighting the final too heavy.  What happens if a student didn't sleep well the night before or had to take a family member to the emergency room and didn't get home until midnight, or is a little under the weather.   I saw a student who had the highest grade in a class fail the final that was worth 50% of their grade, fail the class.  This student had helped others in the class understand course content yet failed the class.

Terah Gordon

An example of helping an angry student in the class is I pulled them into a quiet space to allow them to have this safe space to do their work. I allowed them to give me a signal as to when they were ready to talk and once I could see the signal I would then listen to what they are struggling with and it seemed this worked really well in creating a good rapport with the student and success in learning.

That; "Students through body language let instructors know a number of things about how the course is going. By observing the body language, instructors can make any needed course adjustments to encourage and refocus the students to keep them engaged in the learning process."

Elizabeth Kinney

I like that we can handle an angry student in a better way then just letting them continue to disrupting the entire class. Listening to them gives you an opportunity to see what is the underlying issues for their angry

Lesley Fielding

I learned about the varying type of student behaviors and how to deal with them accordingly

Ryan Kono

I learned about managing and monitoring students, the silent, the angry, cheater, etc

Salvatore Calcasola

It's important to listen to students and find out where they are coming from regarding classwork and tests. Getting to know the background of all students helps to facilitate learning.

Daniel Choi

It is difficult to have to remove a student from the classroom, but sometimes it is necessary if the student is not focused on learning and is disrupting the class and not fostering a learning environemnt.

Annissa Lopez

with angry students listen and let them vent
