EDUC 0314 - Classroom Management


Credits: 3

Students will learn strategies for organizing and managing a classroom in order to create an environment that is conducive to learning and is both respectful and inclusive of all community members.  The beliefs of teachers and the effects of those beliefs on students are examined and challenged.  Roles and responsibilities of the classroom teacher to empower all students are introduced and practiced.  Emphasis is on democratic practices, teacher language, proactive planning, and the philosophy behind the management of the classroom.  Reactive practices taught have a positive (non-punitive) problem-solving orientation.  Equity, community, care, respect, and inclusion are consistent themes.

Prerequisites: EDUC 0319  or EDUC 0354
