Assignment 1: Graphic Organiser

Classroom management is a significant issue for teachers, school leaders,

system administrators and the public nowadays. It heavily affects community
perceptions, teacher efficacy and wellbeing, and the standards of achievement of
students in the school (Helen Egeberg et.al, 2016). Classroom management is the
term we will use to highlight all of those positive behaviours and decisions teachers
make to facilitate the learning process of their students. Effective classroom
management strategies generally based on the principle of establishing a positive
classroom environment encompassing effective teacher-student relationships (Hanke.K,
2014). Therefore, teacher plays important roles to implement and create an effective
classroom management which creating conducive environment for teaching and learning
process and preventing the classroom disciplinary problem issues to arise among the
students.

Futhermore, in order to intervene the disciplinary problems issues the teacher

can implement discipline management models in the classroom. Student misbehaviours
such as disruptive talking, chronic avoidance of work, clowning, interfering with teaching
activities, harassing classmates, verbal insults, rudeness to teacher, defiance, and
hostility , ranging from infrequent to frequent, mild to severe, is a thorny issue in
everyday classroom (Rachel.C.F & Daniel.T.L, 2012). Thus, by knowing these discipline
models, it helps the teacher to understand more about their student’s behaviour and
discipline. The discipline management models that can be used in intervene these
disciplinary issues.

conclude all the aspects in classroom management which includes the concept of
classroom management, teacher’s roles in managing conducive learning environment
and developing positive relationship in classroom, current classroom disciplinary
problems issues among the students and the most suitable discipline management
