So much of what we teachers struggle with in the classroom that is considered “rude” student behavior can be prevented in the first place. What we see as rude is often simply student ignorance. If we set clear expectations and a positive classroom tone, we are better able to head off such behaviors before they disrupt our classes. This presentation will focus on preventing disruptive classroom behavior and managing such behavior should it occur. Participants will receive a handout dealing with behavioral expectations they could use or adapt for their own classes.
