  Case: Students of Poverty
A new teacher at Mr. Roberts school is having a hard time earning the respect of his students. The majority of the students come from poverty, and they have tendencies that demonstrate disrespect. One of those is eye contact when being talked to and another is students laughing when they are being redirected in front of their peers. Mr. Roberts knows that students of poverty respond better when being reprimanded in private and praised in public. He doesn't want to step on the new teacher's toes, but wants to help this teacher in this regard. What is the best way to do this?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Model the teacher behavior that he wants the other teacher to display.

Comments: Well yes you should model how you want your students to behave that does not always solve the issue. Talk about respect in class, and then do an assingment on it, even presentations would be nice because then each student could share who and what they respect.

Comments: the problem with this advice is that it requires the other teacher to "figure it out" and pick up on unspoken cues that the new teacher - in their frenzy of starting a new job - may not notice.

Comments: I think you need more than a role model when you are new. A nice talk giving ideas and ways to improve will be more than appreciated and then show with example.

Comments: Overall I don't think this solution would solve any problems because it lacks communication. There is no way for the new teacher to even understand the situation without guidance.
