Some may advocate the use of carrots rather than sticks; some may refer to punishments as \"logical consequences.\" But virtually all take for granted that the teacher must be in control of the classroom, and that what we need are strategies to get students to comply with the adult's expectations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlfie Kohn challenged these widely accepted premises, and with them the very idea of classroom \"management,\" when the original edition of \u003cem\u003eBeyond Discipline\u003c\/em\u003e was published in 1996. Since then, his path-breaking book has invited hundreds of thousands of educators to question the assumption that problems in the classroom are always the fault of students who don't do what they're told; instead, it may be necessary to reconsider what it is that they've been told to do--or to learn. Kohn shows how a fundamentally cynical view of children underlies the belief that we must tell them exactly how we expect them to behave and then offer \"positive reinforcement\" when they obey.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eJust as memorizing someone else's right answers fails to promote students' intellectual development, so does complying with someone else's expectations for how to act fail to help students develop socially or morally. Kohn contrasts the idea of discipline, in which things are done to students to control their behavior, with an approach in which we work with students to create caring communities where decisions are made together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eBeyond Discipline\u003c\/em\u003e has earned the status of an education classic, a vital alternative to all the traditional manuals that consist of techniques for imposing control. For this 10th anniversary edition, Kohn adds a new afterword that expands on the book's central themes and responds to questions from readers. Packed with stories from real classrooms around the country, seasoned with humor and grounded in a vision as practical as it is optimistic, \u003cem\u003eBeyond Discipline\u003c\/em\u003e shows how students are most likely to flourish in schools that have moved toward collaborative problem solving--and beyond discipline.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 182\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.43 x 9.06 x 5.98 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 15, 2006\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52505650626867,"sku":"9781416604723","price":43.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/UkdGUDRobmVEbEh3UHIrbmt3eCtBQT09.webp?v=1760227011","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/beyond-discipline-from-compliance-to-community-10th-anniversary-edition-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
