Written for classroom management and general methods courses, the Fourth Edition of Principles of Classroom Management provides a theoretically-based and practical system for helping teachers prevent disruptive behavior, influence appropriate behavior and continue to provide a positive learning environment for their students. This concise text presents an array of decision-making options that guide teachers in thinking about how to approach particular classroom management situations and choose from a range of options designed to prevent, cope with, and solve a variety of problems. A variety of theoretical perspectives, each fleshed out with cases taken from actual classrooms, gives students many choices in how to handle issues that may arise in their own classrooms.

From the Back Cover
“This text is concise and doesn’t intimidate the undergraduate student. Students need the bottom line. Currently, this text does that.”
―Justin J. Wageman, North Dakota State University
“This text is very informative. It is not easy to find a book on discipline that includes the material that this one does.”
―Barrie A. Brancato, Clarian University
“I have used this text since I began teaching classroom management six years ago. I have reviewed many others but still find this one to best meet the needs of the students.
―Joan Schwartz, Armstrong Atlantic State University
