MAS 7701
Classroom Culture and Student Behavior
3 credits

This course is an in-depth study of practical techniques applied by teachers to deal effectively with high school and middle level student behavior problems when such problems arise in classrooms and schools. Different students misbehave in different ways and for different reasons. As a result, not all misbehavior can be handled by teachers in the same way. In this course, middle level and secondary level teacher candidates will learn about reasons for misbehavior and about several discipline models or options appropriate for middle and high schools that can be used by teachers when students misbehave.

Prerequisite(s): MED 6102, MAS 7604 and MAS 7603
