Classroom Management 101: A quick look

All I heard from this video clip is "how to control bad behavior". They focus on the bad behavior and how to control the students and "make them silence" using control tips.  They seem to focus on "what to do to students" instead of working with them and seeing what is really going on. If you want to really teach, I recommend "Consciouse Discipline by Dr. Becky Bailey. She focuses on connection and relationships inorder to help the children problemsolve.

They dont teach classroom management at university.

I have to agree with you! I think there should be a class that teaches teachers classroom management skills, that focuses on the positive discipline not the "rewards and punishment" that are currently used today to mange behavior. Rewards and punishments is the same as bribes and threats using a "nice voice".

"I came across this website" would be better if you weren't obviously the OWNER of the website, "classroommanagement1"

As teachers, we need to get all the information we can get. Obviously, everyone expects teachers to be everything. What about the parents? Its those "do gooders" who interfere with parents and teachers on how we should discipline. As a teacher and a parent, the whole system is mucked up. We cannot hurt the "self esteem" of the child. I never knew I had "self esteem" until I was 40 years old and I went through a lot of bad times and my "self esteem" is still intact.

It's not about blame, its about taking action to make that connection with those children that didn't get it at home. After all someday those children will be the ones who will take care of us when we are old. Be the hero.

If this is so good, why isn't it taught to all teacher candidates?

Good question... Why isn't there a social emotional curriculum in our primary and elementary school levels. Does it just stop in preschool? Looking to improve our public school system.
