Effective Classroom Discipline
Effective classroom discipline is an essential part of the educational process. Both teachers and students either suffer or profit from the relative effectiveness of classroom discipline. Effective classroom discipline enhances teaching and learning, while its absence hampers the educational process.
Another essential part of the educational process involves socialization of children. Like the family, what happens within the classroom serves as an example to children of how people conduct themselves and the potential consequences of their actions. Classrooms that have clearly defined rules, and are consistent in their enforcement, have few discipline problems.
The classroom models society. What happens within it should accurately reflect what takes places in the "real world." Students must learn that there are certain rules to follow and ways to behave. The rules serve to help students understand what is (and what will be) expected of them. Students who learn this important lesson tend to function well in the classroom and in society.
Conversely, classrooms that lack a system of clearly defined rules can be very confusing, because students cannot know how to conduct themselves. This is especially true of students who lack adequate training and discipline a home.
Effective classroom discipline is not some mystery or difficult approach to controlling behavior. Instead, it is rather straightforward. Effective classroom discipline builds upon the concept that it is possible to PREVENT most behavioral problems by establishing and maintaining clearly defined rules that are enforced in a consistent manner.
However, the rules and their enforcement need not be punitive, harsh or threatening. There is no room for fear of discomfort within the classroom. Rather, by developing a sensitive but firm approach, effective classroom discipline can be a positive educational experience. Children respond to praise far better than criticism.
