I agree with your take on this topic. A structured environment is the key for positive outcomes. I’m currenlty dealing with a work conflict between two employees and I see that lack of structure in the work that they are doing might be influencing the dispute. Thes methods are not only effective in classroom management but also in every setting where teaching and managing takes place.
Do you have experience with a specific style of classroom management?
I do not know if there is any management strategy considered the best and backed up by research, however, as you mentioned, there are strategies suggested that work well when implemnted together (e.g., structure, teacher cometence, behavior management, etc). Teachers are often required to observe classroom behavior and take action when a disruptive or challenging behavior needs to be assessed. Positive Behavioral Supports (BPS) is an evidence based practice to address challenging behavior in students (Hemmeter et al., 2007, 2022, as cited in Obee et al., 2022). BPS consists on three levels of strategies that cover intervention, expectations, and provides support to avoid escalating the challenging behavior and avoiding more intensive interventions. The strategies are beneficial within the younger population and targets challening behavior in order to establish the conditions to foster positive behavior and classroom altmosphere (Obee et al., 2022).
