Praxis II PLT 7-12

Category - Students

One of the things that students really do not like about Ms. Eliason is when she says, “Kids, you ain’t gonna go nowhere with that attitude.” What classroom management technique is Ms. Eliason failing to use when she says this?
  1. Establishing a standard of conduct
  2. Establishing a rule about attitudes
  3. Establishing boundaries of conduct
  4. Providing a motivation
Explanation
Answer: A - Establishing a standard of conduct. A comment like that does not establish a standard of conduct in the classroom and many students will pick up on it. If the student attitudes are negative and the reaction to the comment is not one of amusement to the class, then such a communication style is potentially a form of negative reinforcement.
