6. What are some strategies for
managing Routine Misbehavior?
One principle of classroom discipline is good
management of routine misbehavior. The principle of
least intervention means using the simplest methods
that will work. There is a continuum of strategies from
least to most disruptive; prevention of misbehavior;
nonverbal cues such as eye contact, which can stop a
minor misbehavior; praise of incompatible, correct
behavior; praise of other students who are behaving;
simple verbal reminders given immediately after
students misbehave; repetition of verbal reminders; and
application of consequences when students refuse to
comply. For serious behavior problems, swift and
certain consequences must be applied. A call to the
student’s parents can be effective.

7. How is applied behavior analysis
used to manage more serious
behavior problems?
The most common reinforcer for both routine
and serious misbehavior is attention from teacher
or peers. When the student misbehaves to get the
teacher’s attention, one effective strategy is to pay
attention to correct behavior while ignoring
misbehavior as much as possible, scolding often
acts as a reinforcer of misbehavior.

8. HOW CAN SERIOUS BEHAVIOR PROBLEMS
BE PREVENTED
There are few sure methods or preventing
delinquency, but some general principles include
clearly expressing and consistently enforcing
classroom rules, reducing truancy however
possible, avoiding the use of between class ability
grouping, using preventive classroom
management strategies, involving parents in any
response to serious misbehavior, using peer
mediation, avoiding the use suspension, applying
only brief punishment, and integrating students
after punishment.
