Building Classroom Discipline

Building Classroom Discipline Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This bestselling book focuses on helping teachers develop their own personal systems of discipline that will lead to productive and pleasant class room environments. Building Classroom Discipline presents and analyizes models of discipline, including two new models, developed by some of the most influential educational thinkers in the past 50 years. The book shifts the usual "behavior modification" theme to students learning control and teachers creating a sense of community in the classroom. The new trend of students taking more responsibility for their behavior is addressed, and the book offers a wealth of practical techniques for tailoring systems of discipline to suit teacher preferences, the realities of the school, and special needs of students.

Synopsis:

The best-selling text in classroom discipline! This book synthesizes and summarizes the contributions of the leading authorities in discipline, to show how their theories and systems can be used by teachers to create structures of positive discipline. The text analyzes 18 models of school discipline developed, researched and tested by educational thinkers of the last half-century and shows how they can be applied in realistic situations. The theorists listed have carefully coordinated chapter contents with Dr. Carol Charles to ensure accuracy in the presentation of their models. Teachers are challenged to create a structure of positive discipline based on traditional and current disciplinary approaches that are suitable to their particular needs. New models by Budd Churchward and Marvin Marshall as well as a video of selected models (for adopters) is available with this edition.
