Abstract
Chapter 10, titled "Behaviour Management in Classrooms," begins by introducing behaviour management as a teaching strategy. The chapter then discusses behaviour management in higher classrooms, including proactive and corrective interventions. The proactive interventions discussed include setting goals, planning classroom space, and preparing social space. The corrective interventions include refocus notes, target–stop–do, distract the distractor, chat time with students, restitution, and chill-out time. The chapter then presents the advantages and disadvantages of behaviour management in classrooms. It highlights key considerations for effective behaviour management, including technology integration, addressing the needs of diverse student populations with cultural competency and inclusivity, and being aware of evolving societal norms. The chapter further discusses techniques for effective behaviour management, such as positive behaviour reinforcement, restorative practices, differentiated instruction, social-emotional learning, collaborative problem-solving, clear communication and expectations, individualised behaviour plans, and behaviour reflection and support. Finally, the chapter presents selected case studies of behaviour management among students. It concludes that by prioritising effective behaviour management, teachers can create an environment that fosters growth, cultivates important social-emotional skills, and enables students to reach their full potential.
