Study Notes

Moral Development

  • At the preconventional level, morality is not based on personal reasoning and judgment
  • At this level, individuals are aware of social consequences and responses based on felt difficulty
  • Responses to biological stimuli are not a characteristic of preconventional morality

Emotional Reaction in Adolescents

  • The most common form of emotional reaction among adolescents is moodiness

Classroom Management

  • When a student misbehaves, it is important to address the issue without punishing or threatening the student
  • Instead, the teacher should try to understand the reasons behind the student's behavior
  • Anonymous grievances and complaints should not be entertained
  • Confiscating mobile phones or giving punishment is not an effective way to address misbehavior

Discipline and Punishment

  • Giving punishments or low grades as a form of discipline should be avoided
  • Punishment does not develop self-discipline and can lead to negative attitudes, low aspirations, and rebellion
  • Discipline should aim to bring about children who are considerate of others' rights and are socially adjusted

Working with Challenging Students

  • When a student consistently creates trouble in class, the first step is to find out why they behave in this way
  • When a student is lazy and does not engage in group activities, the teacher should try to encourage them to participate
  • Referring the student to the guidance counselor or talking to their parents may be necessary

Dealing with Aggressive Behavior

  • When dealing with a student who is aggressive and exhibits behavior such as fighting, quarrelling, and bullying, the first step is to assess their needs and determine possible causes of their behavior
  • Calling the student's parents for a conference and soliciting their cooperation may be necessary

Teacher's Perspective

  • When students don't seem to like their teacher, the teacher should focus on understanding the reasons behind this and try to change their own behavior
  • A democratic approach to discipline brings about children who are considerate of others' rights and are socially adjusted
