Study Notes

Classroom Management Styles

Three styles: Hands off, Hands on, Hands joined.
Hands off is permissive, lacking clear boundaries or interventions, allowing poor behavior.
Hands on is autocratic; attempts to enforce behavior often lead to rebellion among students.
Hands joined promotes a democratic environment where students are treated as decision makers, fostering cooperation and academic achievement.

Importance of Body Language

Teachers should maintain an unimpressed, businesslike demeanor during misbehavior.
Calm and firm tone alongside relaxed body language signifies teacher control during conflicts.

Student Needs and the Three C's

All students need to feel they belong.
The Three C's: capable, connect, contribute.
Factors affecting satisfaction of the Three C's include teacher-student relationship quality, classroom climate, and structure appropriateness.

Encouragement and Relationships

The encouragement process implements the Three C strategies.
Encouragement is recognized as the most powerful tool in teaching.
Unfulfilled needs can lead to anger and frustration.

Inclusion and Misbehavior Goals

Inclusion requires students with special needs to be placed in the least restrictive environment.
Four goals of student misbehavior: attention, power, revenge, avoidance of failure (developed by Dr. Rudolf Dreikurs).

Attention-Seeking Behaviors

Two types: Active (obvious, disruptive) and Passive (subtle, non-compliant).
Identifying attention-seeking behavior involves noticing personal annoyance, impulsive reactions, and temporary behavior changes upon verbal intervention.
Students seeking attention may desire a relationship but struggle to connect positively.

Power-Seeking Behaviors

Active power seekers display clear, overt defiance; passive power seekers are quietly non-compliant.
Distinguishing passive power behavior involves recognizing selective compliance.
Power seekers can exhibit positive traits such as leadership potential and independent thinking.

Revenge-Seeking Behaviors

Active revenge seekers engage in direct or passive attacks and emotional manipulation.
Identifying revenge behaviors often involves personal feelings of anger, leading to the desire for punishment.
Building caring relationships and teaching appropriate emotional expression are essential prevention strategies.

Avoidance of Failure Behaviors

Active avoidance includes tantrums to evade assignments due to fear of failure, while passive avoidance may involve procrastination or assumed incapacities.
Personal feelings of concern or frustration indicate potential avoidance behaviors.
Encouraging a belief in personal capability and fostering friendships can prevent avoidance.

RTI and Classroom Routines

RTI (Response to Intervention) integrates assessment and intervention to maximize achievement and reduce behavioral issues.
Routines consist of regular actions supporting classroom management; procedures are for specific events.

Effective Classroom Management

Critical assumptions for the 3 Tier Model include effective instruction and established expectations.
Effective managers utilize time efficiently and engage students actively to minimize misbehavior.
Creating effective classroom rules involves clarity, positivity, and visibility.

Clarifying Expectations

Clarification involves gaining attention, teaching rules explicitly, checking understanding, practicing, and evaluating.

Tiered Interventions

Three tiers of behavioral intervention:
- Tier 1 focuses on universal prevention and interventions.
- Tier 2 addresses more specific behavioral issues with clear consequences.
- Tier 3 entails intensive assessments and plans for students with significant challenges.

Learning Types and Screening Measures

Three types of learning: Frustrational (hardest), Instructional (most effective), Independent (easiest).
Screening measures assess at-risk students through factors like attendance, academic performance, and socioeconomic status.
