This text analyzes 17 models of school discipline developed by educational thinkers of the last half century and shows how they can be applied in realistic situations. This book assists teachers in creating a structure of positive discipline based on traditional and current disciplinary approaches. The models of discipline presented in this book include six historical approaches that can be studied for perspective and development. Beyond the historical models, eleven current "application" models reflecting current thought are included with chapter ending cases for each model. The same four cases are repeated to compare outcomes using the suggestions of different models. The final portion of the book presents a guide that helps users build their personal systems of discipline, reflecting the belief that individual teachers will develop individual systems.

Look Elsewhere for "How-to's",
By A Customer
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Building Classroom Discipline (7th Edition) (Paperback)
Building Classroom Discipline is a practical book for a college classroom; however, for the teacher looking for a "how-to" book, there are other books that are better. BCD is wonderful for learning about different theories or studies on discipline, but it doesn't get to the practical stuff until the end of the book. Therefore, if you are looking for a book full of "how-to's", read something else.

Great For Teachers,
By Claire Davies (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Classroom Discipline, 6th Edition (Paperback)
This book I believe is excellent for not only beginning teachers but also those teachers who are in a classroom now. It provides an unbiased account of Educational Theorist. The text looks at what each theorist has recommended from his or her own research in managing classroom behaviour. The book provides strategies for teachers to help control and prevent student misbehaviour. The book not only looks at old Theorist such as Dreikus, Kounin, Skinner but new Theorist such as Canter. It is a must for all teachers to read, allowing them to effectively use strategies suggested by the various theorists in their classroom. I have found the suggested strategies helpful in my own Teaching.
