Good behavior in a classroom is essential for maximum learning
for students. Good behavior in a classroom gives teachers the chance to engage
students and help them learn to the best of their abilities. These disruptive
behaviors could include talking during lessons, walking around the classroom,
sniping remarks, and cheating. What can stop these disrupted behaviors then?
According to Carnegie Melon University, creating engaging lessons coursework
will help prevent these behaviors and help students learn more. This creates a
ripple effect that helps students learn can prevent some of the common behavior
issues we see in classrooms today.
When students are passionate about a topic, they are eager to
learn new things! Picture a kindergarten aged child in their first year of
school. When kids are this age, they do not think by labels because they don’t understand
how to label people. They play with all kids in the playground, regardless of
their race or social status. They are excited about learning and don’t compare
themselves to other students who adults deem as “smarter”. They are passionate
and excited about learning and experiencing new things. What changes as they
grow up and go throughout America’s education system? What stops them from
becoming an engaged learner?
Our job as educators is to teach children. It is a teacher’s responsibility
to get a child excited and eager to learn new things. There are many ways to do
that, which we will discuss throughout this presentation. These ways include
movement, music, motivators, behaviors, engaging lessons, and real life
applications.

the classroom but in society at large (Kowalski, 2003).- https://www.cmu.edu/teaching/designteach/teach/problemstudent.html
