Reflection
We have discussed in class that classroom management is not only concerned with discipline problems but also with class routines and rules. We have also mentioned that teachers’ beliefs about what is order and what is discipline in a classroom are different; therefore, they take different solutions to solve classroom management issues.
I related the school of thought order philosophy to my personal experience at TAES. At TAES students are to the strong pressures side of the continuum because they are imposed the rules of being quite, for instance. They are not taught to behave; rather they are punished for not doing so. In my opinion and based on my personal experience if students are talking in the classroom or misbehaving, we should not call their attention every single moment if that is not interfering with the learning process. However, it is difficult to know when their misbehavior is interfering with the learning process.
