Overview

Educational Consultant: Robert J. Marzano

Implement a systemwide solution for classroom management based on the proven strategies from ASCD’s best-selling book Classroom Management That Works: Research-Based Strategies for Every Teacher.

This DVD and Facilitator’s Guide make it much easier and more cost-effective to conduct in-depth teacher workshops on the research-based classroom management strategies that are more apt to lead to higher student achievement.

Program 1, Sharing Rules and Procedures, helps teachers get off to a good start with new classes by showing them how to establish rules and procedures and set clear expectations for student behavior. Take workshop participants to elementary, middle, and high school classrooms to see how teachers involve students in establishing rules and setting the consequences for not following them.

Use Program 2, Developing Relationships, to explain how the relationship between teachers and students can keep positive learning environments going. Classroom scenes show how teachers can orchestrate an environment suitable for learning with multiple classes and widely diverse students. Teachers demonstrate research-based strategies that lead to mutual respect and student achievement.

Program 3, Fostering Student Self-Management, explores strategies for empowering students with self-discipline and the ability to control their own time, behavior, personal responsibility, and attention. Show teachers how it’s possible to make students responsible for the good functioning of the classroom.

Included with your purchase of the DVD is a comprehensive Facilitator’s Guide with agendas, overheads, and handouts for planning and conducting two different workshops for each program.
