The view from here: 1974-‐‑2015 =41 years in Education
• Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s characters.
• Classroom Management is the method by
which the teacher structures the classroom environment in order to proactively impact students with positive routines and habits.
• Student Discipline is the system of reactions to
student behavior after misbehavior has occurred.

"ʺMost of our assumptions
have outlived their uselessness."ʺ
— Marshall McLuhan
Classroom Management: How do you know what you know about students and
learning?
• Many of us learned what we know about child development and motivation from a behaviorist perspective – B. F. Skinner and others.
• Rewards, Punishment and Ignoring
• Behavioral techniques now formalized into PBIS, RTI
![Page 9: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What is Classroom Management? 1. Facilitating the use of time for optimal student success. 2. Facilitating the use of spaces and materials for optimal student success. 3. Facilitating relationships between people for optimal student success.

Facilitating Relationships In Marilyn Watson’s model of Developmental Discipline, classroom management is the building of warm, caring, trusting student-teacher relationships and the support and encouragement of friendly relationships among students. From Marilyn Watson’s (2003) Learning to Trust and (2007) Discipline for Moral Growth

Classroom Management is……..Proactive
• Fair, orderly, and predictable systems
• Routines and Procedures designed for fairness, courtesy, and success for all
• Relationships based on care for the well-being of children
![Page 13: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
What about PBIS? Many schools, and districts participate in Positive Behavior Intervention and Support. Understand the origin of this method Ask yourself if you or your child would benefit from this method - At home? At work? In graduate school?
![Page 14: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
From Classroom Management to Student Discipline
• The difference between a classroom management issue and a discipline issue that needs to be dealt with by an administrator is determined by many factors: severity, frequency, impact, and history.
• Teachers and Administrators see it somewhat differently • Not every action can be foreseen, therefore rules must be broad
so that procedures and routines supply the specificity but do not carry the weight of rules.
![Page 15: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Student Discipline is…
Using student misbehaviors as opportunities for social, moral instruction
o Kids need to develop social and emotional skills
for developmental discipline to work
o Also directly teach social-emotional competencies
![Page 16: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Discipline Policy Student Discipline Is Reactive Discipline policy should be just and consistent and collaboratively created. Acknowledgement that misbehavior will occur and is a learning opportunity. Courtesy and respectful restoration of class membership after consequences.
![Page 17: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Does student discipline mirror our system of Justice: Should it?
• Do we believe that…… • 1. A person is innocent until proven
guilty? • 2. Citizens have the right to due
process? • 3. The punishment should fit the
crime? • 4. Once a person has paid their debt
to society they can re-enter the community?
Do we really believe these statements where children are concerned?
![Page 18: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
"ʺ People in democratic societies have a right to expect
their schools to be guided by moral principles such as
justice, fairness of treatment, liberty, honesty, equity in
the distribution of resources, and respect for differences."ʺ
Peter Senge, Nelda Cambron-McCabe, Timothy Lucas, Bryan Smith, Janis Dutton, & Art Kleiner (2000)
![Page 19: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
My model of student discipline Misbehavior as an opportunity for learning: First: Listen to the Kid! Have the kid write what happened, dictate what happened, draw what happened – from their own perspective. Only after that can you question, probe, offer alternate theories/ perspectives and/or question other participants.
![Page 20: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Analyze and Learn Using the child’s account of the incident, ask for explanation of feelings at critical points. Then ask for or suggest alternate responses. Don’t ask, “Why?”. If clear account is still in doubt, call witnesses, but keep identities confidential if possible. During this de-construction, the answer to “Why?” usually is revealed.
![Page 21: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Review “What if everyone did what you did?” “Was it helpful or hurtful?” The GOAL is growth in Perspective Taking and Empathy
![Page 22: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Rewind Apply the new learning. “Where did you go wrong?” “Who was hurt?” “If you had it to do over again, what would you do?”
![Page 23: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Repair Repair relationship Range of ways to do that Restore what was lost/damaged Make amends
![Page 24: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Record Keep a log or record of incidents. Use the written incident as a record. Periodically graph the incidents on a calendar to show growth or lack of growth and your own internal consistency.
![Page 25: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Through the eyes of the Teacher: 1. The focus on high level instruction and student academic outcomes leaves
little time to devote to students who repeatedly disturb and disrupt their own and others’ learning. Teachers must be prepared with their own power of persuasion in order to achieve academic goals.
2. The variety of parenting competencies and family and cultural norms and expectations increases the likelihood that school and home will experience conflict about student behavior.
3. The discipline system is confusing and appears inconsistent over time and across students.
4. Student rights seem to assume a higher priority than the authority of the teacher.
5. Teachers seem to want, need, and believe that more and greater punishments will change children’s behavior, but the teacher doesn’t want to do it.
6. Teachers want: acknowledgement, internal consistency, investigation, follow through, and communication.
![Page 26: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Through the eyes of an administrator: The school administrator plays multiple roles in the discipline process: This is a legal obligation to the child: 1. The school administrator is required to safeguard the student’s
legal rights during the investigation of and administering of discipline.
2. The school administrator also typically assumes the role of investigator, prosecutor, and judge. 3. School administrators who endorse or ignore harsh or unfair practices of teachers without questioning will find themselves legally liable. 4. Administrators want : accuracy, clarity, specificity, brevity and objectivity.
![Page 27: CharacterEducation, ClassroomManagement ... · Theviewfromhere: 19742015=41yearsinEducation • Character Education has to do with the role of the school in the development of children’s](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022071008/5fc580d33de00c3ade46d1be/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Through the eyes of the Student and Parent
1. Students and parents perceive schools and teachers and administrators as part of a bureaucratic system that doesn’t “see” individual students.
2. Parents want and need help with parenting. 3. Students want and need limits. 4. Students want to belong. 5. Students and parents want justice and fairness. 6. Parents and students want guidance that will lead
the student to success.

Tips from the Trenches: • Acknowledge that students want and need
relationships. • Rule out organic and maturational issues. • Remove the audience • Use age norms-they are meaningful to children
(“Ten year olds don’t do that”)

Parents can help – really! • Enlist parents as your partners and validate their
knowledge of their child. • Realize that behavior patterns may be learned at
home. Adults model behavior, like being disorganized, that works for them, but not for their children
• Understand that many, many adults have a dislike and distrust of school teachers because of punitive and demeaning behavior by their teachers. Help break that cycle!
