He often shouted in class when he got frustrated. Mr Lee decided to put him at the back of the classroom so he could not disturb other students with his frequent off-task behavior]]> 2021-09-20 10:43:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753564867 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753567782 Miss Cheung let her students sit wherever they wanted in the lab. She figured that the occasional off-task behavior that resulted when friends sit beside one another (e.g., talking etc.) could be counter-balanced by the fact that the students were happier working together ]]> 2021-09-20 10:44:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753567782 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753572933 Mr Wong knew that the first few months of schools are difficult for many students, so he was very lenient to them in the first two weeks of school. He also thought that students would develop a better relationship with him. After they have established a good relationship, he can then set rule for classroom behavior and enforce them.]]> 2021-09-20 10:47:41 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753572933 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753577250 Ms Ho was very excited about the history topic she was going to teach. Once she started, she kept on explaining the chains of events using a well-prepared power-point presentation. However, after a while, she found that some students were beginning to fall asleep. ]]> 2021-09-20 10:50:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753577250 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753580188 After Mr Chow taught the maths problems, he set the class several problems for them to work on. The instruction was somewhat complicated. After a short while, many of his students were putting up their hands asking for help. When he was busy moving around to help the students, others began talking and playing around. Mr Chow told the whole class to have school detention. ]]> 2021-09-20 10:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753580188 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753587445 Leon and Johnny, who were sitting at the same table as Shelly, started to whisper, Robert watched this and he too got into the act. Then Shelly giggled and said something to Johnny. Then Mary leaned over and whispered to Shelly. At this point, Mr Chan said, "Mary, stop that!" Mary was very upset and thought the teacher is unfair.  ]]> 2021-09-20 10:56:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753587445 ckkchan https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753613845 What do you think about the teacher's action in managing the classroom? What may you have done in this situation? Group A work on scenario A, Group B work on scenario B and so on. You can browse the other scenarios - what different areas do you need to consider in managing the classroom. ]]> 2021-09-20 11:12:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1753613845 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984122 It is understandable that teachers cannot witness the whole cause of action and always make the right judgement, thus it is important to make clear of any unclear situation first and give students a chance to explain. 

Then Mary may explain, or just go back to her sit and pay attention again.]]> 2021-09-21 03:31:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984122 3035468067 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984631 We can ask students to sit wherever they want in the first lesson, during the lesson we observe which students are more talkative and are potential misbehave doers. After the first class we swap those students and decide the seating plan. ]]> 2021-09-21 03:32:03 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984631 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984946 1. Mr Chow should be aware of the level of difficulty of task
2. When he realised several students faced difficulty in understanding the instruction, he should explain in more detail first
3. When students have difficulty, he should not assume its the students’ problem.
4. Mr Chow should not punish the whole class, but actually think deeply why are the students chatting and playing around. Mr Chow himself did not give enough attention to all the students.]]> 2021-09-21 03:32:15 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755984946 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755985760 Fun: student lack of fun, the teacher focused on her own fun. Lack of interactive activities during lesson.

Love - belonging: Student do not belong to the classroom, lack of sharing and cooperation. ]]> 2021-09-21 03:32:45 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755985760 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755986244 Tai Ming’s misbehavior may stem from the desire of attention seeking. Putting him at the back may worsen the situation since he probably will shout even louder. 

In this case, Tai Ming has to be put closer to teacher desk, so that teacher can provide timely, essential assistance. But teacher may always available to provide assistance. We think it is possible that pair Tai Ming up with one strong-performing, empathetic, supportive student. So that whenever he is in need, his partner can help him. 

P.S. scaffold student can be switched from time to time, so that the peer helper would not overwhelmed. ]]> 2021-09-21 03:33:05 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755986244 https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755991482 We think Mr. Wong should introduce the rules to the students at the beginning, and being lenient at the same time. They are not mutually exclusive. If rules are not introduced at the beginning, students would not obey as they had experiences of not having rules in the classroom before.]]> 2021-09-21 03:36:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ckkchan/wdx2bt6zkizy7l0r/wish/1755991482
