Discipline?

Research on Katherine’s reflection
To investigate the validity of teacher concerns about implementing the Assertive Discipline model into classrooms not presently using this behavior management system, a case study was developed in 2003. Katherine Johnston (a pseudonym), a student teacher assigned to a first-grade classroom of 18 students at a rural elementary school, was the subject of this study. A demographic breakdown of the students in Katherine’s assigned classroom showed that there were 10 male and eight female students; 17 students of European-American descent and one male student of Mexican-American descent; three learning-disabled students (two males and one female); four students in the federal free lunch program; and two students who were retained from the previous school year.

Results Reflecting on her successful experiences during student
teaching, Katherine wrote:
“I have learned that Assertive Discipline is very effective when used consistently. I implemented a new discipline plan, reward system, and class-wide reward with much success. I feel like these were successful for several reasons. First of all, my mentor was completely supportive. Secondly, I was keeping very detailed documentation. And finally, I was constantly checking myself for consistency.”
