Study Notes

Classroom Management Key Concepts

Marzano identifies classroom management as the primary variable impacting student achievement.
Teacher actions in classroom management encompass four areas, excluding “Capturing Kids Hearts.”
An example of a procedure is the process of checking out of school.
The optimal combination for teacher effectiveness is moderate dominance coupled with moderate cooperation.
"Withitness" refers to the ability to quickly and accurately recognize and address problem behavior.

Assertive Discipline Framework

The third step in Lee Canter's Assertive Discipline is a fifteen-minute time out for students.
The final step in Canter's five-step hierarchy for teenagers involves sending the student to the principal's office.
Assertive teachers should clearly establish rules and parameters for classroom conduct.
The last rule for assertive discipline advises avoiding roadblocks in the teaching process.
The initial procedure guideline for Assertive Discipline involves reviewing classroom rules at the start of the school year.

Strategies for Attention Management

The most effective strategy to minimize attention-seeking behavior is to stand close to the student.
According to Dreikurs, unconventional methods to gain student attention include turning off lights, playing a musical instrument, or talking to a wall.
An example of 'Displaying Inadequacy' in Dreikurs’ model entails focusing on past successes.
Gaining power and control can be achieved through the use of time-outs as suggested by Dreikurs.
Distracting misbehaving students effectively can involve standing adjacent to them during their misbehavior.

Thomas' Counting Method

Thomas' Counting Method consists of three steps.
The punishment for the third step in Thomas' method is a time-out.
The method is most effective for children aged 2 to 12 years.
Effective teachers, according to Thomas, are characterized as warm and demanding.
The Counting Method was developed to assist parents struggling to discipline their children.

Fred Jones' Classroom Management Theory

Positive Classroom Management, as defined by Fred Jones, focuses on minimizing wasted class time and teaching students personal responsibility.
The theory consists of five clusters crucial for effective management.
Body language influences good behavior, particularly through physical proximity (standing close to students).
The first cluster in Fred Jones' theory is named “Structure.”
"Say, See, Do" illustrates the teaching method where the teacher explains, demonstrates, and the students complete the activity.

Kagan's Cooperative Learning Approach

Kagan describes Sharing Responsibility as the act of taking ownership of one’s actions and effecting change.
“Corrective Actions” is not regarded as one of Kagan's three pillars of classroom management.
Kagan’s structures are designed to enhance communication, cooperation, and active student engagement.
There are three pillars in Kagan's "win-win" approach to classroom management.
Teaching practices, as per Kagan's model, often incorporate strategies that emphasize a "same side" approach.

Wong's Classroom Management Principles

Well-managed teachers ensure that student progress is accurately recorded in their record book.
A well-managed classroom is characterized by effective systems and routines facilitating learning and behavior management.
