Teacher caused discipline problems arise from a number of sources:
a. Lack of preparation
b. Inadequate training in discipline techniques
c. Attitude toward students.
Students respond much better to teachers who teach students the subject matter rather than teach the subject matter.
The best discipline tools are:
a. Knowing your subject and your topic
b. Caring to convey that knowledge to the students
c. Have fun learning and telling your classes about what you learned, even in areas not related to your classes
d. Be honest with your students (They can see through masks' and screens')
e. Don't expect to know all things (Don't project the impression that you consider that you 'know all things')
f. Graciously and gently give your students some room for error and they will do the same for you
g. Be aware of what it means when students are auditory, visual, or kinesthetic
h. Don't be manipulated into wanting them to like you (Aim for respect; then they will like you)
i. Don't be a buddy (They have contempt for teachers they can push around, and they have hate for arbitrary, willful, and otherwise unfair teachers)
j. Be fair
k. Don't punish the entire class unless the entire class is at fault (Note: if the teacher will analyze the problem there is almost no situation where the entire class is at fault)
l. Don't attempt to control a class with your physical strength.
A teacher is more effective keeping discipline on a societal, mental, ethical, and emotional plane.
