DISRUPTIYE BE HA VJOUR

The teacher’s role in the first few classes with a new group is to establish the codę of conduct.

With many adult classes this is an unspoken arrangement, however with young students it may need to be spelled out. A codę of conduct involves the teacher and students in forms of behaviour in the classroom. Certain things do not comply with standards - for example arriving late, interrupting othei students when they speak, bringing drinks and food into the room, forgetting to do homework, not paying attention, using mobile phones, etc. Where a codę of conduct is established both teacher and students will recognise these acts outside the codę.

Causes of disciplitte problems

1.    The teacher should not do a number of things if she wants to avoid problems:

-    Don’t go to class unprepared.

-    Don’t be inconsistent.

-    DoiTt issue threats.

-    Don’t raise your vice.

-    Don’t give boring classes.

-    Don’t be unfair.

-    Don’t have a negative attitude to learning.

-    Don’t break the codę.

2.    Students can behave badly and there are a number of reasons why this is so.
