Post a total of 3 substantive responses over 2 separate days for full participation. This includes your initial post and 2 replies to classmates or your faculty member. 

Due Thursday 

Classroom management will play a big role in your success as a teacher. Classroom management is more than just rules and procedures. It also involves classroom arrangement, student relationships, and student engagement. Think back to the teachers you had in elementary, middle school, and high school. Think about their classroom management practices.

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: 

·    Which teacher(s) had a solid grasp of their classroom management? Which teacher(s) had the least control of their classroom? How did you determine that?

·    What attitudes, behaviors, and skills did each teacher demonstrate that made their classroom management effective or ineffective?

·    What type of authority do you believe will be most effective for you in order to create a positive, productive learning environment?

·    How does this topic link to the College’s Conceptual Framework and the framework’s philosophical relationship to effective teacher preparation?

Explain and provide specific examples to support your responses.
