Haim ginot, between teacher and oom management has received a great amount of attention in recent years and tly the number one problem for educators in america. When one attempt to define the oom management, one immediately assumes it is the need to discipline negative the classroom. According to capizza (2009) “establishing a for classroom management at the outset of the year is essential for a peaceful and oom that is conducive to instruction and learning for students with a variety of academic,Social, and behavioral needs” (p. Although, students’ negative behavior and negative a major component, classroom management is the concern of how things are done in oom, rather than the concern of how students behave. From the student’ctive, effective classroom management involves clear communication of behavioral ic expectations, as well as a cooperative learning environment (allen, 2010). Teachers do line a classroom; they manage a ively managing a classroom is possibly the most difficult aspect of the art ng. Once a teacher loses control of their classroom, it becomes increasingly more them to regain that control. Research shows that the time a teacher has to take to avior caused by poor classroom management skills results in a lower rate of ment in the classroom. In order for teachers to successfully teach and students ically succeed; an orderly classroom environment with minimum disruption to or under control is needed. This action research project will examine the progressive ideology ts should be able to govern themselves, the conservative ideology of a oom environment, and a hybrid of the two approaches, and their effects on students’. We are prepared and dedicated g towards closing the achievement gap between low-income students and ts and preparing all students to succeed in is a lack of classroom management being effectively enforced in s, thus, making daily instruction more challenging for the teachers and learning nging for the students. On a daily basis in-service and pre-service teachers are faced tive behavior in their classroom, which results in wasted instructional time. Public not spend a sufficient amount of time establishing routines, rules and practicing ts should not be expected to learn and master classroom procedures within the first school or be able to govern themselves.

Action research on pupils behavior

Researchers believe, when there is set of classroom management techniques in line, teachers can establish an effective nment. When teachers have a rich management and discipline repertoire, students become -disciplined, minimizing the need to refer students to the office and ctional time with greater opportunities to teach and learn” (p. It has been argued that establishing ures/routines and utilizing actionable techniques, such as non-verbal cues and g, is extremely vital to an efficient and academically successfully classroom. The ch project investigates whether making use of every second in the classroom to instruct ts, will lead our students one step closer to closing the achievement gap and one to going to college. The action research project will also investigate whether ures and utilizing actionable techniques ensure academic success in the of related need for classroom discussing tools to effective teaching that leads to authentic learning, no longer term classroom management go without significant acknowledgment. Managing have been problematic in classrooms across america for decades, and although, this is schools are increasingly seeing more egregious student behavior. Ask a group of teachers what they are most concerned about in their classrooms or schools. And in the school environment undercuts the social norm required for high oning in urban classrooms. S have also shown that in a quest to understand many classroom behaviors consider classroom settings and qualities. It is believe that classroom management will be a greater challenge in for urban schools -poverty neighborhoods because. Ed an educational program’s views on classroom management and views of rs in urban schools showed that the educational program believes that “strong emotions. The researchers concluded ts who were in the classroom that implemented the instructional management med better in reading and mathematics than the control group of students who were not ooms that implemented the instructional management program (freiberg. In another study conducted in an effort to understanding of the pre-service teacher’s perspective on classroom control. The interventionist approach is the exact opposite and typically is used in traditional teacher-centered classroom environment. Johnson (2001) the non-interventionist approach is also described as the tion of classroom control where “fun lessons and letting students decide.

And interactionist that are currently in use in classrooms around the united closely examined in a study that compared beginning and experienced teacher’s the three classroom management approaches (unal & unal. That neither beginner nor experienced teachers were found to be non-interventionist of the subscales of classroom management (p. Interactionist approach to classroom management strives to find solutions that actory to both the teacher and student. Johnson (2001) refers approach as the rule based conception to classroom control won’t have beginner teacher favored the interactionist approach. Therefore “creating the best learning environment possible is the primary the classroom teacher’s responsibility” (martin. Clement (2010) tells teacher education candidates ters of teacher-centered classroom need for classroom management skills has not diminished during a time when has put the spotlight on academic testing and student achievement. It is argued that an educator cannot be considered a highly-qualified teacher without y of sound best-practice strategies for managing classroom time. None of the groups were in favor of allowing students to have full control or to have y responsibility of developing their own rules” (unal & oom management practices contribute to t or culture that either promotes or discourages bullying (allen. Given these facts classroom management is tandable concern for novice teachers as well as experienced teachers (rosas & west. Lack of effective classroom management practices leaves a breeding ground ve adverse behaviors in the classroom such as bullying. You will not even get to teach your perfectly written lesson plan if you don’t have oom management plan in place. Studies that investigated the impact of classroom management and bullying not only did classroom management correlate with whether bullying took place ts. There are many supporters of an strong authoritative classroom management practices will allow teachers e teaching excellence along both academic and social dimensions and may be the two pressing educational problems (walker. The argument against the traditional classroom ces is that teachers are not effectively managing their class or teaching their line. According to walker (2009) the students who consistently experienced a classroom with high-quality instruction and a nal climate was astonishingly low: 7%.

Choi and lee (2009) mentions techniques-oriented discourse and approach to classroom management oversimplifies by assuming that everything about classroom management is a well-structured problem (sori’s pedagogy. To alter the hierarchy in a traditional classroom and move away from the itarian role of the instructor. A person-centered classroom creates a n the wants of the teacher (the w) and the efforts and needs of the students (the e).

According to doyle (2009) the classroom is not simply a background or ner for teaching and g a collective classroom we. Ters of a hybrid of teacher-centered and student-centered classroom are theorists and practitioners who seek to marry the two schools of thought. And (mis)management rs prepare students to follow directions and to “obey” orders for the world of work. In their attempts to meet institutional expectations implement management strategies that reify systems of oppression and students. Endless studies have been done on all three approaches to ment it is still our responsibility as action researchers to evaluate if our proposed..

Is an open access article distributed under the creative commons attribution license, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly article has been cited by other articles in ctthis study aimed to examine the conceptions of junior secondary school student misbehaviors in classroom, and to identify the most common, disruptive, and unacceptable student problem behaviors from teachers' perspective. The findings revealed that teachers perceived student problem behaviors as those behaviors involving rule-breaking, violating the implicit norms or expectations, being inappropriate in the classroom settings and upsetting teaching and learning, which mainly required intervention from teachers. Introductionstudent misbehaviors such as disruptive talking, chronic avoidance of work, clowning, interfering with teaching activities, harassing classmates, verbal insults, rudeness to teacher, defiance, and hostility [1], ranging from infrequent to frequent, mild to severe, is a thorny issue in everyday classroom. Teachers usually reported that these disturbing behaviors in the classroom are intolerable [2] and stress-provoking [3], and they had to spend a great deal of time and energy to manage the classroom [4, 5].

Moreover, research findings have shown that school misbehavior not only escalated with time but also lowered academic achievement and increased delinquent behavior [6, 7]. When there are explicit rules and regulations in school and classroom, violation of these is apparently a “misbehavior or misconduct or discipline problem. Nevertheless, a particular behavior is viewed as problematic may not necessarily be rule breaking, but inappropriate or disturbing in the classroom setting. Noting that school misconduct is one of the manifests of the problem behavior syndrome [15–17], the term “problem behavior” was used to refer to all externalizing behaviors that violate explicit rules or implicit norms, disturb the classroom order, and irritate the process of teaching and learning in this l scales have been developed to measure teachers' perceptions of classroom problem behaviors. 11] also used these behaviors to measure secondary school students' behavior problems, with a replacement of eating with verbal abuse because they found that teachers did not perceive eating as a problem behavior among secondary school students whereas verbal abuse was a more relevant behavior r, the cultural relevance of these scales to describe and measure disruptive behavior among primary and secondary school students in hong kong chinese classroom is a concern that should be addressed. However, as these descriptors of students' disruptive behaviors were formed almost a decade ago, their validity and applicability to chinese classrooms nowadays may be questioned. Some student behaviors that have not be mentioned in the previous studies, such as daydreaming, sleeping, looking out of window, playing with personal stuff in private, bullying, disrespecting, talking back, arguing, quarrelling or fighting with teachers, complaining, and lack of independent initiative were found by a recent study in exploring chinese teachers' perceptions of students' classroom misbehavior [18]. On top of this, uncooperativeness, emotional disturbance, overactivity and withdrawal were also reported as student classroom behavior problems by chinese elementary school teachers [5]. It is thus argued that the scales developed in these studies as well as the findings may be limited to describing student problem behaviors in mainland china classroom, which is different from the pluralistic classroom in which confucian and western teaching and learning approaches are used in hong kong. As such, direct employment of an existing scale is hardly sufficient to tap all the classroom problem behaviors exhibited by students. It is, therefore, important to carry out a qualitative research study to unravel relevant and up-to-dated descriptions of the students' problem behaviors in hong kong classroom based on the views of from exploring different categories of student problem behaviors inside classroom, it is also valuable to identify the common ones and the disruptive ones from the teachers' perspectives. Existing research findings showed that, among various types of student problem behaviors, “talking out of turn,” “hindering others,” and “idleness” were commonly reported by secondary school teachers as the most frequent and troublesome misbehaviors in the united kingdom [11] and australia [19]. Similar to these findings in the west, “talking out of turn” was rated by both primary and secondary school teachers as the most frequent and troublesome misbehavior, followed by “nonattentiveness” and “forgetfulness”—two other typical students' disruptive behaviors in hong kong classroom [4, 12]. In mainland china, “nonattentiveness”, “talking out of turn,” and “overactive” were reported as the most frequent and troublesome classroom behavior problems by the elementary school teachers in three provinces [5]. On the other hand, “daydreaming,” “talking out of turn,” and “playing with personal stuff” were rated as the most frequent classroom misbehaviors by a group of elementary, middle and high school teachers in another two provinces, while “daydreaming,” “slowness” and “talking out of turn” were the most troublesome classroom misbehaviors [18].

With a specific focus on studying the problem behaviors of junior secondary students in hong kong classroom, this study attempted to replicate the previous studies in examining the problem behaviors perceived by teachers as the most common and disruptive. In addition, this study further attempted to investigate the most unacceptable problem behaviors in the eyes of teachers and the underlying reasons primary goal of this study was to examine classroom problem behaviors among junior secondary school students in hong kong based on the views of teachers. The aims of this study were to (i) generate a list of categories of students' problem behaviors perceived by teachers in hong kong junior secondary school classroom, (ii) identify problem behaviors that were perceived as the most common, the most disruptive to teaching and learning in classroom, and the most unacceptable problem behavior and the reasons. Academically, the present findings would add to the local literature, as recent research studies on this topic are scanty in hong kong [8, 9]. In the interview guide, questions and prompts used to explore the interviewees' perceptions of students' problem behaviors and their management strategies in the classroom and school contexts. As many questions were covered in the interview guide, only data related to the following questions were analyzed in this the classroom, what student problem behaviors are there? Data analysisfindings pertinent to teachers' perceptions of students' problem behavior inside classroom are reported in this paper. Categories of classroom problem 1 summarizes 88 responses regarding students' problem behaviors inside classroom reported by 12 informants. Some teachers pointed out that it was a rising phenomenon that students liked to use electronic devices, such as mobile phone for texting people inside or outside classroom, playing electronic games, surfing webpage, or listening to music. Nonattentiveness/daydreaming/idleness,” “sleeping,” and “out of seat” (including changing seats deliberately, wandering around the classroom, catching, running away from the classroom without permission) were commonly reported as problem behaviors inside classroom. For example, they often have emotional disturbance, run away from classroom and sometimes fight against with their teachers” (teacher b01). Problem behaviors that were most common and disruptive to teaching and learningamong various classroom problem behaviors reported, comparatively more teachers pointed out that “having disruptive conversation” was a form of “talking out of turn,” which was the most common and the most disruptive to teaching and learning (see table 1). If i do nothing, other students will imitate and join the conversation…as the classroom is small, others can still hear even you talk in a low voice. The most unacceptable problem behaviors inside classroomas indicated in table 1, “disrespecting teachers” were rated by five teachers as the most unacceptable problem behavior. Talking out of turn” and “verbal aggression” were also mentioned by teachers as unacceptable, because these behaviors disrupted the classroom order, which required teachers to spend time in managing classroom discipline and thus would adversely affect teaching.

Among these verbal aggressive behaviors, teachers revealed that they could not accept students speaking foul language and teasing others, particularly insult would hurt the rmore, individual teachers mentioned that “non-attentiveness/daydreaming/idleness,” “out of seat,” “habitual failure in submitting assignments,” “clowning,” and “passive engagement in class” as unacceptable, mainly because these behaviors would affect student learning and classroom atmosphere. Discussionbased on the perspective of teachers, this study attempted to generate a list of categories of students' problem behaviors in hong kong junior secondary school classroom, and to identify the most common, disruptive and unacceptable student problem behaviors. These findings indicate that teachers are concerned about classroom learning and student development, and they expect that there are respect, obedience, order, and discipline in the classroom. First, “doing something in private” was regarded as a student problem behavior in secondary school classroom in chinese cultural contexts [12, 18], while it was not included in some studies conducted in the west [11, 19]. As these electronic devices are multifunctional and audio-visual stimulating, some students would be tempted to use them for communication and fulfilling personal satisfaction even during lesson. Actually, doing something in private is an off-task behavior in which students are doing something irrelevant to classroom learning. All these might escalate to “physical aggression”, such as striking and pushing each others and destroying things in the classroom. The findings suggest that problem behaviors include those breaking explicit rules as well as those infringing implicit norms or from respect and obedience, order and discipline are essential elements of the chinese classroom. Therefore, “out of seat,” “playing,” “clowning,” “lateness to class,” “eating/drinking,” “copying homework,” and “habitual failure in submitting assignments” were some common student problem behaviors perceived as disruptive to classroom order. The interviews revealed that on one hand, the teachers would like to have more control on the classroom order and discipline for not only easy management but also facilitating student learning. These problem behaviors are inappropriate in the classroom settings, as well as upsetting the classroom teaching and learning, which mainly require intervention from gh some unique findings were observed in this study, there were some limitations involved. Apart from looking at the categorization and descriptions of student problem behaviors, it would be more insightful if the antecedents of these behaviors or effective classroom management strategies could be explored in future. In particular, it would be exciting to see how curricular-based programs can help to reduce classroom misbehavior. It would be interesting to see whether the program can lessen classroom misbehavior in the long ledgmentsthe authorship of this paper is equally shared by both authors.
