In order for us to fully understand the importance of both, we must explore what they signify as well as what behavior and misbehavior mean. We will discover their meanings, their likenesses, and how they are distinct. We will also explore how they correlate to one another. An effective teacher creates and maintains orderliness in their classroom. By using proactive procedures of communication, behaviors can often be changed. Discipline means to teach self-control. Management is the act of taking charge or taking care of something. Behavior is the act of how one behaves. Misbehavior is being inappropriately, or acting as one should not.

Yet every day in classrooms across the world educator's are faced with these challenges because like it or not kids are going to act up in class. Knowing these daily challenges will cause almost every educator to think about and consider how they will carry out both classroom management and discipline with their students. While these two items are similar, they certainly are not the same, or are they? Moreover, why do we need them in our classrooms? Classroom Management and Discipline, although they may seem similar and do go hand in hand in the classroom, most might agree they are not the same. Classroom Management is typically a teachers plan to obtain and keep order in their classroom while engaging their students in active learning. Knowing this information many if not all teachers will take the necessary steps to not only creating a good classroom management plan but they will try and communicate this plan with their students so that the students know what is expected of them while they are in school. Teachers realize these plans are not only necessary but their best attempt to detour and possibly even prevent the behaviors...

...Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related By Jeff Conroy Grand Canyon University EDU:536 August 25, 2013 Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Discipline and management and behavior and misbehavior are all interrelated and deal with how a teacher organizes and teaches a class. All of these concepts have similarities and differences and all are integral parts of a teacher’s classroom. Misbehavior This is when someone breaks the rules or doesn’t follow directions. In a classroom this can be something like being disrespectful to someone else or not following a teacher’s directions. (Charles, 2014) An example would be: A student talking at the same time as a teacher is explaining something. Behavior This is the way students act or respond to others and themselves. It is usually categorized as either good behavior or bad behavior. (Charles, 2014) An example of bad behavior might be a student stealing something from another student and an example of good behavior might be a student listening to instructions from their teacher. Discipline Discipline is the way a teacher might correct student misbehavior. In the past this was done through coercion and punishment, while today it is done through positive influence and persuasion. (Charles, 2014) An example of this might be the teacher reminding his/her students of the rules when one of the students is currently breaking a rule. Management There...

When you take on the word management in the classroom it definately takes on a whole new meaning. In the classroom management means to be organized, have a plan that is already written out, an idea, direction or a course of action that you as the teacher want to take on. The classroom will be neat, safe, and the teacher should always have something going on for the students. Discipline is always misunderstood for classroom management. Discipline is not punishment and many people think it is. "This is a pathway to guide people towards self-control in the future and the outcome of discipline should not be used as the fear of authority" (Charles, 2008, p. 7). Classroom discipline should be appropriate for students functioning at any and all stage. This will enecourage good...

...Running head: Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Angela Williams EDU August 15th, 2012 For many years I associated discipline with whooping or punishment. When I heard of someone being disciplined by their parents, I always thought they had gotten a spanking. Later, I soon learned that when you discipline someone you help to guide them in the right direction, you steer them from the wrong they’ve done. For instance, I disciplined my child just last night by taking away his iPad because he has been being mean to his teacher. When she asks him to do something, he tells her no. When he made it home yesterday I sat him down and talked to him about his behavior and I let him that it was unacceptable. He did much better today. “Discipline is based on logical and natural consequences; it is concerned with the present. Options are kept open so students can choose to improve behavior and gain self-control. Discipline is an active teaching process which involves communication. It is organized and ensures involvement of all stakeholders.” (EDU 536 Lectures) “The tactics that teachers use to manage student behavior are referred to as discipline or behavior management.” (Charles, 2008, p. 9) “Classroom management refers to all of the things that a teacher does to organize students, space, time and materials so that instruction in content and student learning can take place”...

...Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Cynthia Shilcosky Grand Canyon University: EDU 535TE 07/27/2015 Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Classroom management and discipline are terms that are very often used interchangeably in the education field. However, there are clear distinctions between the two and it is important for educators to be aware of these differences. Classroom management is the teacher’s responsibility and refers to how things are done. Discipline is the responsibility of both the teacher and student and can best be simply described as how people behave. A further, more in depth look at these terms and how they should be applied to a classroom setting follows. Classroom Management Classroom management begins before the students even step into the school at the beginning of the school year. Each teacher is challenged to create their own system of classroom management which encompasses many things. The personality of the teacher will strongly determine the types of classroom management they will use (Bullock, Coplan, & Bosacki, 2015). Classroom management requires procedures to be in place, plans to be prepared, organization of the classroom and materials, and structure (Ediger, 2013). Establishing procedures is the first major aspect of classroom management. This involves setting up routines for the students that will take place on a regular basis. As my students walk into my second grade classroom each morning, they know...

...Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Discipline and management go hand in hand with behavior and misbehavior. Discipline is a plan designed by a teacher, in the classroom, to help regulate the student’s behavior. Teachers want to promote positive behavior and dampen negative behavior. Classroom management is a plan to make certain classroom lessons will carry on easily even if there is a disruptive student. Discipline is controlling the classroom, and management is to plan around disruptions. Discipline and management are very closely related to behavior and misbehavior. Behavior is a positive act and misbehavior is a negative act. However, they are both an action of a student. Student behavior relates to how the student reacts to certain stimuli. If the student is sitting nicely in their own seat, keeping their hands to themselves, and working on their assignment they are behaving well. A student misbehaving would be poking their friend in the back, speaking out of turn, and not following the teacher’s instructions. This would then make the teacher go to his or her plan of action through reciting their classroom management rules, for discipline. These four terms influence one another to a great extent. Classroom management is how the teacher runs things in the classroom. Discipline goes back to how the teacher would manage the students’ behavior within that classroom. I believe that it will be tricky even for a teacher who has many years of experience to have...

...Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related EDU – 536 Classroom Engagement and Management Grand Canyon University By: Emanuel Brown II March 7, 2012 Brown 1 In our classrooms everyday we stand in front of a group of students from all different walks of life. But for eight hours a day they are all in the same room for the same purpose. Well what are we there for? We are there to teach them to make them ready for the world after 12 years of school. In order to do this in an orderly manner, we must first establish good classroom management, and in my opinion if we can establish good and effective classroom management then there will be little or no discipline problems. If we as teachers let our students know what is expected of them, then they will be more prone to respond to our teaching in a positive way and gain everything they need. First of all, how we will define the word discipline? The word discipline has many different meanings, but they all serve the same general idea and purpose. For starters we will define discipline as a system of rules or conduct, or a type of correction. It can also be defines as a system of rules, or to punish or criticize, as you see they all have the same general idea. (http://www.definitions.net/definition/discipline.

...Discipline and Management: Different Yet Related Mary Keel Grand Canyon University: TCH-536 January 26, 2014 Comparison of Discipline and Management, and Behaviour and Misbehaviour Definitions Discipline denotes training or systematic instruction intended to produce a specific pattern of behaviour or character, especially training, which produces mental or moral character that adheres to a specific order or conduct. The term could also refer to the product of the training, which is controlled behaviour that results from self-control attained after disciplinary training. The term also denotes the act of punishing to enforce obedience or gain control (Marvin, 2014). Management is the coordination and organization of activities in a classroom in order to attain defined objectives and this involves controlling or dealing with students, processes and things in a manner that enables attainment of set goals and objectives (Marvin, 2014). Behaviour denotes observable activities or mannerisms in humans, which is an aggregate of responses to stimuli or input whether external and internal, voluntary of involuntary, covert or overt and conscious or subconscious. On the other hand, misbehaviour denotes conduct or actions that are incorrect, improper, inappropriate or unexpected of an individual based on their settings. Similarity of the Terms 1) Discipline and management are both control processes aimed at achieving specific objectives. On one hand, management...

...norm. In these situations, both teachers and students suffer. Classroom Management- Feb./March 2009 The Difference Between Discipline and Procedures Classroom management should not be equated with discipline. Discipline is a very small part of classroom management. Procedures are not found in a discipline plan; nor should a procedure be a threat, a rule, or an order. A procedure is simply a method or process for getting things done in the classroom. Procedures and routines are different from a discipline plan. Do not confuse procedures with discipline. There are two major differences. DISCIPLINE concerns how students BEHAVE. PROCEDURES concern how things ARE DONE. DISCIPLINE HAS consequences and rewards. PROCEDURES HAVE NO consequences or rewards. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT deals with how things are done. DISCIPLINE deals with how people behave. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT has to do with procedures, routines, and structure. DISCIPLINE is about impulse management and self-control. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT is the teacher's responsibility. DISCIPLINE is the student's responsibility. CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT is enhanced when procedures are: 1. explained to students, 2. practiced by students, and periodically (when necessary) 3. reinforced by practicing again. When procedures are learned, routines are established. Routines give structure to instruction. Good classroom management is essential for efficient teaching and learning. Chances are that when you...

...Strategic Choice and Evaluation Paper STR/581 March 18, 2013 Dr. Robert Rowlett Choosing a sustainable business strategy is not an easy choice but there are companies who have done it and continue to do so. One such company is Amazon.com who first opened their virtual doors in 1994 and “emerged from the dot-com bubble one of the few winners and continued to blaze a trail of impressive growth (from about $4 billion in 2002 to nearly $20 billion in 2008),” (Johnson, 2010.) Companies like Amazon.com survive and thrive because of sound business decisions based upon sound business models. Their business model is based in strong management strategy. In this paper we will explore alternative Generic strategies, value disciplines, and grand strategies for Amazon.com based upon past performance focused on continued success. Generic Strategies “A long-term, or grand strategy must be based on a core idea about how the firm can best compete in the market place. The popular term for this core idea is generic strategy, from a scheme developed by Michael Porter,” (Pearce & Robinson, 2011). Porter believed that the generic strategy should be directly tied to the company’s performance in the marketplace in this way a firm could leverage its strengths and become stronger. Porter suggests that companies will subscribe to one or more of three types of generic strategies: Low-Cost Leadership, Differentiation, and Focus. Amazon.com has enjoyed the success of a focus strategy in the past. This...

...Running head: ETHICS LEGALITY CLASSROOM Ethics and Legality in Classroom Management Jordan Hollern GCU EDU 536 03/04/2012 Ethics and Legality in Classroom Management A teacher must deal with disruptive classroom behavior throughout their career. To do so, they must not only develop their skills in handling these situations but also develop ethical standards for their classroom. These standards set forth by the teacher will help them deal with their students, those students’ parents, the school administrators and their community. There are numerous articles written that could help a teacher when researching any legal or ethical issues that may arise during their teaching career. This paper summarizes four peer-reviewed articles that address the legal and ethical implications for classroom management related to the rights and responsibilities of students, parents and teachers. The first article under review is Public School Law-Teachers and Student’s Rights in which the legal rights of both the teacher and the students are defined. The article also includes the legal liabilities of the teacher in the classroom. The Negligent Tort Law states that a teacher may be held accountable by a court of law if he or she could have foreseen and prevented the injury by exercising proper care (McCarthy & Cambron-McCabe, 1992). The duty of the teacher in the classroom is to protect the students (McCarthy, et.al, 1992). The teacher must take all precautions...

...children in their own home. The classroom is an immediate environment where management is applied in order for students to acquire formal knowledge. It is made up of the teacher, students, learning devices, and the learning environment. Management, on the other hand, can be seen as a process of designing and maintaining any setting in which people work in groups for the purpose of achieving common goals. The Oxford Dictionary defines management as the act of running or controlling or skill of dealing with people or situations in any way. Loomiz (1980) defined management as a method where a group of people at the highest level of organization plan, organize, communicate, coordinate, control and direct the actions and activities of people who work for the organization toward the achievement of organizational objectives. In the school setting, in order to achieve its aims, a school has to have objectives, and to achieve these objectives, the various people with responsibilities in the school, especially in the classroom have to plan organize and lead. Classroom management is the term used by teachers to describe the process of ensuring that the classroom lessons runs smoothly despite disruptive behavior of the students. Many authors have their own definitions of classroom management and most of them agreed that it is a process of maintaining and establishing effective learning environment. Classroom management strategies changes through times....
