    -Boys Town
    100 beginning teachers were surveyed
    and asked the question: In what areas
    do you feel you would like guidance?

    The top three answers are


    Classroom
    management

    Staying on top of
    everything

    How to plan
    lessons
    Whats effective classroom management?

    Effective classroom management is not..

    the creation of an orderly classroom

    the reduction of misbehabiour

    What is effective classroom management then?


    Definition 1
    Effective classroom management is..
    the creation of a learning environment.
    the increase of appropriate behaviour.
    Definition 2

    Classroom management is all the things a teacher


    does to organize students, space, time, materials,
    so that student learning can take place.
    Dfinition 3

    Classroom management is way of organizing the


    resources, pupils and helpers so that teaching
    and learning can proceed in an efficient and safe
    manner.
    Why classroom management?
    Positive Indicators
    Teacher has excellent rapport with class and learners with
    each other
    Learners are motivated and participate readily and actively in
    different activities (no boredom)
    Task objectives are consistently achieved (increase in time on task)
    Increase in positive attitude towards the subject area
    ( increase in achievement)
    There is variety in groupings and room layout
    4 key factors to effective classroom
    management

    1. The physical environnent of the classroom


    2 Classroom climate
    3 Rules and procedures
    4 Teacher-student relationships
    I. The Physical Environment of the
    classroom
    Things to consider:
    The management of space should be conducive to
    learning
    The physical environment of the classroom should
    support the tasks that will be carried out there
    How will the students be working?
    alone? In pairs? In small groups?
    (Student desks should be arranged accordingly)
    Classroom Layout

    The importance of layout


    Some considerations
    1.Can I see the faces of every single student and can they see me?
    2.Can everyone see the board (if you're planning on using it)?
    3.Can the students see one another?
    4.Can I move around the room so that I can monitor effectively?
    Classroom Layout
    II. Classroom Climate
    Setting the classroom climate is key.
    Its about creating an environment:
    Where people treat each other with courtesy and respect
    Where students follow rules, not out of fear, but because
    they feel ownership for them
    Where the teachers goal is not so much to control students
    behaviour, but to create opportunities for students to develop
    and exercise control over their own behaviour
    III. Rules and procedures
    Rules and procedures are a prerequisite for effective
    classroom management and effective instruction.

    Rules must be reasonable and necessary.


    Rules must be meaningful and
    Rule 1 & 2 understandable.

    Rules must be consistent with instructional


    goals.
    Rule 3 & 4 Classroom rules must be be consistent with
    school rules
    Behavior Expectation
    Four Questions:

    Question What behavior do I expect from my students?


    1&2 How can I convey that to my students?

    What will I do when a student misbehaves and


    Question breaks a rule?
    3&4 Will I have a hierarchy of consequences to deal with
    mild, moderate, and severe misbehavior?
    Managerial Qualities of a Teacher
    Effective classroom managers establish rules and procedures at
    the beginning of school .
    Effective classroom managers plan to prevent management
    problems. (proactive vs. reactive)
    Effective classroom managers monitor to prevent problems.
    Effective classroom managers use socialization as a way to resolve
    problem behavior.
    Effective classroom managers avoid criticism.
    Effective classroom managers hold students accountable for their
    behavior.
    IV. Teacher-student relationships
    Learners' opinions of teachers

    Learners prefer teachers who are :

    Slightly strict

    Carefully fair

    Treat them as individuals

    Have a sense of humour, but not one based on irony


    4 Primary reasons for classroom
    misbehaviour

    Attention

    Power

    Revenge

    Avoidance/Escape
    Attention
    Attention-seeking students prefer being
    punished, admonished, or criticized to being
    ignored
    Give attention to this student when he or
    she is on-task and cooperating (praise for effort)
    Power
    A power struggle occurs when teacher and student want to
    control a situation. Dealing with power struggles can be
    difficult for teachers. When this happens to you, try to:

    Ignore the student's attempt to engage you in a power


    struggle
    Meet with the student individually to describe, in objective
    and explicit terms, the behaviour which you cannot accept
    Give a warning, stress the consequence, and then follow
    through
    Factors leading to discipline problems (manage or discipline?)
    They are bored.
    a gap in the lesson (bad planning, an activity loses momentum, a piece
    of equipment fails to work)
    unclear instructions (they dont know what to do, they dont start and
    attention wanders)
    overexcited students arrive from another class in a disorderly mood
    lack of teacher attention (you need constantly to scan the room and
    keep your eyes and ears open to what is happening, especially in large
    groups)
    work is too easy or too challenging (students give up or attention
    wanders)
    They dont know the purpose of your presentation.
    They dont understand how the information that you are delivering
    applies to them.
    Instruction is uninteresting
    The pace of the instruction is incorrect (too fast, or too slow).
    Not enough interaction between and among peers.
    Recommended strategies for class control without confrontation :

    Establish eye contact.


    Move around the room and increase proximity to restless students.
    Send a silent signal. (shake your head)
    Give a quiet reminder.
    Re-direct a student's attention. (use students name!)
    Begin a new activity.
    Provide positive reinforcement.
    Wait quietly until everyone is on task.
    Ask a directed question.
    Effective teaching effective
    classroom management
    According to Wong et al. (2001), effective teachers share
    the following characteristics:

    They are masters of their material.


    They are well prepared and well organized.
    They are enthusiastic about the the topic of the lesson.
    They are warm and approachable, but not familiar.
    They are alert and watchful.
    They are firm and reasonable; fair and consistent.
    They have clear and well-moderated speech.
    Teacher management styles
    What is your classroom management profile?

    Authoritative: Encourages students to be independent


    thinkers, but provides monitoring and verbal give-and- take

    Authoritarian: Restrictive and punitive


    with the focus mainly on keeping order rather than learning

    Permissive: Students have autonomy but little support for


    learning skills or managing behavior
    Indifferent Teacher
    Laissez-Faire Teacher
    Conclusion
    Effective teachers MANAGE their classrooms.
    Ineffective teachers DISCIPLINE their classrooms.
    Effective teachers have a minimum of student misbehaviour
    problems to handle.
    Ineffective teachers are constantly fighting misbehavi or problems.
    Effective teaching and learning cannot take place in a poorly
    managed classroom.
    Effective teachers make effective use of classroom
    management strategies
