The document outlines methods for developing behavior standards and maximizing on-task student behavior in classrooms, emphasizing the importance of establishing clear rules and procedures. It presents a literature review supporting the correlation between rules and classroom success, along with practical steps for teachers to create behavior standards, monitor, and reinforce positive behavior. Additionally, it includes surveys from university students on classroom disruptive behaviors and suggestions for improvement.

5. Learning Goals

6. Learning goals
• For example:
• After this presentation:
• You will understand the importance of having goals
• You will know how to teach and monitor procedures
• You will be equipped with the tools to manage desired behaviour in classroom

7. Why are these goals important?
• 1) They provide the clasroom with a smooth flow.
• 2) They help reduce behavioral problems.
• 3) They help us be more organized, thus more productive.

8. Literature Review of
«Creating Behavioral Standards within the Classroom»
• (Emmer et al., 1980; Evertson & Emmer, 1982a): Effective teachers
teach students classroom rules and procedures.
• According to Emmer and colleagues (1981),
• Rules mean any written rules given that students must obey.
• Procedures mean expectations for a specific behavior. They are
directed to accomplishing, rather than forbiddin some behaviour.

9. Literature Review
• According to initial research, there is a correlation between
establishing rules and classroom success
• Which means establishing more rules results in more
classroom achievement.

10. Literature Review
• (Evertson & Harris, 1999; Evertson & Smithey, 2000): Teachers should be given
more training in classroom management. They further developed this idea into what
is known as Classroom Organization and Management Program.
• Jerome Freiberg (1999), Ron Nelson (Nelson et al, 1998), Positive Behavioral
Support work (Lewis & Newcomer, 2005; Lewis et al., 2006): It is important to
teach desired behaviour and to establish agreed-on behaviour standards.

11. Practical Implication
• To become an effective teacher, we need more training programs like COMP.
• Rules are good but procedures are more effective because they are more specific and
they are positive rather than negative. But we shouldn’t forget that they are
complement of each other.
• We shouldn’t start setting rules and procedures on the first day, it can wait several
lessons.

12. Developing General
Behaviours Standarts or Rules

13. Developing General Behaviours Standarts or Rules
• Rules vs. Norms, Behavior Expectations or Behavior Standards.

14. Steps in Developing Classroom Behaviour Standarts
1. Discussing the value of Rules and Behavior Standards.
 Ask students why adults have rules in society.

15. Steps in Developing Classroom Behaviour Standarts
2. Developing a list.
 State the standards in a positive manner.
 It is important to evaluate the behavior by examining time, place and
manner.

16. Steps in Developing Classroom Behaviour Standarts
3. Getting a commitment.
 Ask students if the rule is appropriate.
 Have students sign this commitment.

17. Steps in Developing Classroom Behaviour Standarts
4. Monitoring and Reviewing the Standards
 Students can be asked to role-play both appropriate and inappropriate
behavior standards.
 It is important to review the rules when the problem increases.

18. Steps in Developing Classroom Behaviour Standarts
5. Reinforcing Behavior that Supports the Classroom Behavior Norms
 Praise and Feedback.
 Assign students to observe the class.

Help Maximize On-Task Student
Behaviour

35. An Outline for Beginning the School Year
• Arranging classroom
• Beginning the lesson
• Giving clear instructions
• Maintainin attention
• Using seatwork effectively
• Summarizing
• Providing useful feedback and evaluation
• Making smooth transition

37. An Outline for Beginning the School Year
• If a teacher corrects misbehavior of one individual student, the other students in the
classroom normally will correct their misbehaviors as well.
• Teacher needs to be aware of what is going on in all parts of the classroom at all
times by continually being alert. Students need to know that the teacher is aware of
what is going on in the classroom.
• Teacher should maintain the direction in the lesson without being diverted by
irrelevant incidents.
• Teacher should have the ability to move smoothly from one activity to next and to
maintain momentum.
(Kounin, Jacob S. (1970) Discipline and Group Management in Classrooms. Holt,
Rinehart and Winston, Inc. )

38. Creating a Safe and Supportive
Learning Community

39. What affects learning environment?
• Students’ background, grades, motivation

45. Literature Review
• McLeod, Fisher, and Hoover (2003) suggest that teachers should become
instructional leaders in the class. Consequently, they have to take
organization of the classroom settings and intellectual and social levels of
students into the consideration to maximize their efficiency.
• Popescu (2014) also states that teachers should design their strategies and
curriculum for intended or unintended student behaviors, try to develop
themselves in terms of resources and time management and become a role
model to their students.
