Classroom Management Modules

In surveys of our graduates, Classroom management is always one of the most prominent challenges expressed by new teachers. Candidates learn basics of classroom management in Education 361 - Principles of Teaching and Assessment. In addition to the basic theory learned in Ed 361, it is also important that candidates receive as much experience as possible in the classroom prior to student teaching and that the theory be reinforced while they are working in the schools during various clinical experiences. To help support students with the needed theoretical framework in the context of their clinical experiences, 5 classroom management modules have been created and should be used in methods and practicum courses throughout the programs to help teaching candidates develop improved basic classroom management skills.

Types of Classroom Management Modules

1. Classroom Management: Creating an Environment of Respect and Rapport.
2. Classroom Management: Establishing a Culture of Learning.
3. Managing Classroom Rules and Procedures
4. Managing Student Behavior
5. Organizing Physical Space

The modules were created by Curtis Chandler and provide a solid foundation on which teachers can build a classroom management plan. The folder is available on google drive containing the modules and support materials.
