Teachers wonder what to do about
these and the countless other learner
behaviors that they witness each school
day. Are these the issues that should
concern them or should they focus
exclusively on the more serious
problems confronting the students?

Classroom management is the
business of getting students to do
what teachers want them to do. If
the teacher is good at it, a lot of
things get done and students enjoy
coming to class.

Many teachers are unsure of how to define a class that is well-

disciplined because today’s discipline issues are neither simple nor
self- evident. For example, teaches may want the students to be
engaged in active learning , but those classroom activities can appear
chaotic. They also struggle with new issues such as cyber bullet and
online cheating.

Even though educators may not always be in

agreement about the exact definition of a
well-disciplined classroom, most of them
certainly know when things are not going well.
Misconduct referral notices are remarkably
uniform in the types of behavior that teachers
and administrators do not find acceptable.

The room itself is appealing in a well-
disciplined room. Many teachers still
teach in cramped and overcrowded
rooms without enough basic materials
and certainly not expensive equipment
such as interactive whiteboards and LCD
projector.
