Successful classroom management is defined as producing a high rate of work involvement with a low rate of deviancy in academic settings.
To some extent teachers control their instructional effectiveness in the classroom. A passive teacher simply relies on the same old teaching techniques. As compare to him an active teacher plans different teaching strategic and techniques in order to motivate the students and to achieve more success in teaching.
Different teaching techniques provide change for the teachers and minimize disturbances and make sure that instruction can proceed efficiently; they set up their rooms according to the following principles:
1) Teachers should be able to see all students at all times.
2) Teaching materials and supplies are readily available.
3) High – traffic areas should be free of congestion.
4) Students should be able to see instructional presentations.
5) Procedures and routines should be actively taught in the same way that academic content is taught.
Time Management Skill
Academic learning time in the classroom is an important factor in keeping the classroom discipline. A teacher’s quick and efficient calls/instructions can vary the time allotted to all classroom activities. The time spent on taking start, handle digressions, off-task behaviour, discipline have an ultimate effect on student learning. Student who spends more time on academic content learns more and receives higher achievement scores. It is important to allocate adequate time to academic content. Making time schedules is not enough, but the proper use of this allocated time leads towards student achievement. In order to study the use of classroom times, researchers have developed the following terms to allocated time, engaged time, and academic learning time.
- Allocated time is the amount of time a teacher scheduled for a subject for example, 30 minutes a day for mathematics. The more time allocated for a subject, the higher student achievement in that subject is likely to be. - Engaged time is that part of allocated time in which students are actively involved with academic subject matter (really listening to a lecture, participating in the class discussion, writing a composition, and working on mathematics problems). - Academic learning time is engaged time with a high success rate. Many researchers suggest that students should get 70 to 80 percent of the answers right when working with a teacher. Teachers who effectively provide and manage academic learning time in their classrooms can determine student achievement. Effective classroom managers are nearly always good planners. They do not become late; handle the situation after noise and disruption. They teach the rules about appropriate student behaviour.
Seating arrangement
Arrangements of space and furniture that cluster students together or hinder the teacher’s view make teaching more difficult. Seating arrangement must depend on type of lesson to be taught, and the type of classroom furniture.
Each teacher needs to know the appropriate seats of all students. A seating plan helps the teacher to learn names easily.
Proper arrangement of furniture also contributes to the smooth running of classrooms functions. According to Anderson (1991) desks, chairs and tables can be arranged in a variety of ways; light and temperature can be increased or decreased. Paint wall coverings, art work and plants can be used to enhance or detract from the attractiveness of the physical classroom environment.
Discipline in the classroom
Discipline in the classroom involves using guidance and teaching techniques. Discipline creates an atmosphere conducive to learning and encourages students to become self directive.
The teacher must fairly examine the reasons of individual student behavior, and then he can plan intelligently how to prevent disciplinary violations before they occur. If violations occurs, appropriate steps can be taken so that as little injury as possible is done to the learning process. Discipline rules should be posted in the classroom for all to see in order to create a classroom environment with maximum productive time utilization.
