  Case: Intimidation
There is a group of three students that make other students feel like they can't speak up or they will be made fun of, and other students do not speak up because those three are a constant distraction in class. How can a teacher change that environment so that these three students do not intimidate the rest of the class anymore?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
First, you need to create a risk-free environment. You should go over your classroom rules and consequences for breaking the rules, again. Instead on asking students to raise their hand to contribute, you can circulate the room and call on students randomly. You can also use formative assessment strategies so students all feel worthy of contributing to the classroom learning environment. I recommend you praise positive behavior and reprimand bad behavior.

Comments: I really like this solution. Randomly calling on students is a great way to discourage and avoid the problem.
