Dimensional Theory

Shyam Sunder Malhotra
Start with Five Dimensions of Education,first dimension is informative,that is Language,History,Geography etc.and the second is Science based upon facts and logic,Third the art and creativeness which shows the creation of looks in students ,the fourth is answering,assessment and analyzing the concept and the last fifth is student life which a student leads and attempts to highlight that he is a student.And as well as the discipline is concerned ,i get the student in radius of subject and get Three dimensions framing a Triangle which is the Parents at first,the teacher on the second and the society around him is at third.All three dimensions are stressing him to be disciplined and to get their expectation fulfilled soon.Their expectations are high and stress is more on height to the student.He should and he ought to be disciplined but at what and how.To reinforce discipline in classroom what is to do by the teacher as same the way he lives in house and in society.As i feel the toughness and softness should be in proportions.The percentage of toughness should not be so high that a student feel stressed and shouldn't be so less that he goes out of reach ,in the same way,the softness shouldn't be so high,that it makes damages and shouldn't be so less that it creates anger-some.In my view,the teacher,parents and society should first create discipline in itself then afterwards can be expected from students.A teacher ,a parent has got educated thirty years back and now not to be in that time,in past,try to be in present and give bright future to the next generation.

Dear Shyam, I most sincerely thank you for your note!! And in particular am grateful for your views and suggestions - I completely agree with you!!! You see, the BEAUTY of this project type /I'm a novice - and therefore a constant learner/ is that each and every participant of a project is MOST WELCOME not only to give pieces of advice, but to acitvely EDIT the page with his/her small projects - the quantity is not limited!!! I logged in a couple of days ago, started two projects, made friends with a splendid lady from India... and instantly got five stars from BCouncil for the basic idea. Not boasting, just telling you my experience. This is a miracle of this kind of engagement!!! So, dear friend and a colleague, you can intervene in the project the way you choose and like best! Your Ls can join in, too!!! And also, everyone the owner of the project chooses for a partner is totally independent and free to contribute the way he(she) wishes. As to school discipline, I cannot say it's good in Croatia. E. g. - absences, being late for school, chatting over classes... they are all culture-grounded which is another aspect of SO MANY aspects the issue incorporates. In the end, I'm just inviting you to help us all involved in the project to put in your ideas - any IT tool will do. Take a look at, for instance Namita's page!!! A beauty. So, pardon me-a beginner, but it's a process - the page gets completed for days and months... replanished, corrected, with so many different stuff which are all up to those joined in the project. And it's YOU, TOO!!! I'll be most grateful for every little contribution you can make!!! Best wishe to you, your colleagues, your staff, your Ls and to our TOGETHERDNESS!!! And one more thing: it's not necessary to write down - under your task - contribution - your name - the colleagues may only guess - but it's really irrelevant! It's our BABY we bring up to a certain "age"... Again, my best wishes, Melita

Hi participants, well I will like to the share the information that I've got where you need to manage your classroom inorder to reinforce discipline in your classroom. Our learners experience a lot of skills deficits eg. Aggressive and Antisocial behaviour,Juvenille Deliquency,Child Abuse and Neglect,Mental Health Disorders,Loneliness and Despondency,Learning Disabilities and School and Failure all these deficits are the cause of ill-discipline in their classroom. I will like to introduce life skills curriculum

Discipline problem in teenagers
15 years ago
Poonam Singh

I came across a book-'Positive Discipline For teenagers' by Jane Nelson and Lynn Lott which has really changed my mindset.

'How To Talk So Teens Will Listen & Listen So Teens Will Talk' by Adele Faber & Elaine Mazlish is another book for parents though the ideas can be applied to students as well.

These books have helped me build appropriate bridges for my teenage students as well as children !

I am happy to be sharing through your forum.

Regards

Poonam Singh
