Case: Inconsistent Disciplining
I am a student teacher and I have volunteered to participate in a special group of student teachers who are interested in teaching in diverse settings. One of the participants in our first group meeting was telling us about her disciplinary methods. When the white children in her class misbehave she sternly reprimands them because, she believes, they know the rules and they know what they are supposed to do. However, when the seven African American students misbehave, she gives them another chance because she wants them to know she cares. I have to react to this person and perhaps explain to her what the consequences of her action could be. What should I do and say? I am not even sure if her methods are actually good or bad.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Consistency, consistency consistency! A strong reprimand should be issued to all students who are misbehaving as a preemptive measure to warn if this intolerable behavior continues that the consequences will become much more severe. You give them a second chance because you assume that they aren't getting any love at home or their home life may be more difficult as a result they act out for attention. Well everyone's life is hard at some point and always to varying degrees. Some students don't have fathers or mother. Some students live in a bad neighborhood. Some are poor. This is not an excuse to misbehave. What they may actually be lacking at home is discipline and school is most certainly a place where students should come not only to get an education but also to learn how to be and conduct themselves as responsible, well behaved (w/personality) young men and women. Some parents work two or three jobs in order to provide for their family. This often leaves little time to teach the children about values and ethics and how a young man or woman should act. A teacher is to be a model example for their students so that those who might not have Life's little Lessons at home can pick up a little extra knowledge at school. |

| Comments: If I were in this situation, I would exactly do this because when your teaching a student the rules is important and following through is even more important and teacher are suppose to model the correct behavior because that might be the only chance they are taught how to behave because they may not be getting that at home. |

| Comments: I completely agree with this solution. Every child should be treated the equally and if the students are indeed lacking discipline at home, being at school should help to employ behavior skills. |

| Comments: Everything stated in this solution is 100% true; however, I don't see anything said about the next course of action that should be taken in the matter at hand. I would like to see an actual plan for this case proposed. |
