Discipline

This educational issue was on discipline. There are several different types of discipline strategies. Assertive Discipline is the most common form of discipline in public schools today.This strategy is based on a set of teacher made rules and standards and the teacher is in complete control. Teacher Effectiveness Training distinguishes between teacher-owned and student-owned problems, and can often play a huge role in the effectiveness of the teacher's discipline strategies. I liked the idea of Student Team Learning, which focuses more on instructional rather than disciplinary strategies. Good discipline skills involve having a classroom where students remain on task, behave responsibly, and show good human relations. One interesting piece of this issue was that Corporal Punishment is still legal in twenty-one states.
