If students have a say in what their learning environment looks like, even if it is a simple choice, there is still a feeling of ownership

Adding on to my comment for 2c, consistency is a key component to introducing and then maintaining expectations and good habits in the classroom, which will help student maintain a meaningful learning environment.

Teachers might “manage” a classroom, but students “maintain” the learning environment; if they are not comfortable with their peers, don’t have the supports to be successful, or feel like the activities or assessments given are not meaningful, they won’t be inclined to maintain a meaningful learning environment

Students always want to know “why” they have to learn something, so having a purpose may motivate them to want to learn and then feel proud that they accomplished something through the learning

I like the new wording: "The teacher models and reinforces positive behaviors to promote reflection and recalibration rather than compliance." - Easier said than done 7th period on a Friday let alone all week long. But isn't that a quality we should remember to aspire to exemplify? How do we keep that goal in focus?
