!- Activity 1. What do you think the characteristics of a disciplined classroom are- Compare your answers with the suggestions below Use '++' for those you agree with without reservations, '+' for those you agree with but not entirely, and '?' for those you have strong reservations:
1. Learning is taking place.
2. It is quiet.
3. T is in control.
4. T and SS are cooperating smoothly.
5. SS are motivated.
6. The lesson is proceeding according to plan.
7. T and SS are aiming for the same objective.
8. T has natural charismatic 'authority'.
CONCLUSION:
The question of the relationship between discipline and learning in a lesson is a crucial one. In a disciplined classroom it is easier to activate SS in the way the T wants and the time will be spent on-task, rather than wasted on organisational problems or disruptive behaviour. The learning value of the activities themselves is also very important, otherwise learning does not take place, no matter how cooperative the class is.
The ultimate goal of classroom discipline maintained by the T is the SS' ability to self-discipline as this aspect shows the maturity of the learner.
