Project Management Guide
Classroom Management Plan
Behavior/Discipline Plan
| All teachers experience situations in which they have
to deal with difficult students. Even with a school policy to fall back
on, it is recommend that teachers develop a specific set of expectations
and consequences for their Internet-based project. Students, as well as
teachers, may be treading on new ground and may need to be reminded of how
they should behave. Before undertaking an Internet project in the
classroom, teachers should re-read their school's Acceptable Use Policy to
their students and remind them of the consequences for failing to adhere
to the policy. Rules should also be displayed in writing near the computer
stations. Also, teachers should establish a way of keeping students
accountable when they work in cooperative groups. |
EXAMPLE: Prior
to students undertaking web-based searching for information pertaining to their
science fair projects, their teacher reviews the school policy regarding access of
inappropriate material with the students. He reminds them that intentionally accessing
inappropriate sites (e.g. pornography, shopping catalogs, movie star web pages,
chat rooms) will be cause for punishment according to their school's Acceptable
Use Policy.
QUESTIONS:
What behavior expectations and/or discipline actions will you need to establish or reinforce?
How will this information be presented
to students?
