Understanding Component 2D: Managing student behavior
What is component 2D?
As future educators we need to be able to set high expectations, monitor our students' behaviors, and respond appropriately when students misbehave.Component 2D is focused upon setting high expectations & monitoring students' behaviors effectively. We need to be sure that our students understand the classroom expectations and goals, as well as what is expected of them while in our classroom.
Why?
Component 2D is important, because:
- When our classroom environment runs smoothly, then our students can engage with the content they are learning.
- Our future classrooms need to run like a well oiled machine, meaning they must be effective and efficient, and run smoothly.
- Students must understand the expectations and standard of work required of them in the class.
- Students need to feel valued, respected, and cared for even when they misbehave. We must not undermine them.
Elements
Expectations
- Students need to understand what is expected of them in your class.
- The teacher needs to convey to the students what is expected of them, in way that they can clearly understand.
- When appropriate, students can help to establish these expectations.
Monitoring student behavior
- We need to have eyes in the back our heads so to speak, we need to be aware of what students are doing at all times in our classrooms.
- We need to be cognizant of what is going in the classroom at all times.
- When appropriate students monitor their peers work.
- A teacher observes his/her class in way that is unobtrusive.
Response to student misbehavior
- When students are being reprimanded, it is in a respectful manner.
- Teachers respond to student misbehavior in a effective manner.
Possible artifacts
Artifacts for component 2D could include the following:
- Examples of contact with parents or guardians regarding student behavior exhibited in class.
- Effective classroom management skills are displayed by the teacher.
