    Eh. They come from broken homes and their current generation of teachers wants to talk about eating out their girlfriend and convincing the children that they’re anything but boys and girls. I can’t blame the children for being MONSTROUS. Well, in elementary school, that is. Then, they’re just bad people re-enacting trauma, but CHOOSING to be bad people.

They put minimum effort into everything. I have many kids who can’t read, write a simple paragraph or do math. Discipline is a joke because they know the worst they will get is in school suspension and when they are there, all they do is play on their phones. Need to bring back paddling.

    Treating students as adults can go a long way. I had a class in High School called "Argumentation and Persuasion". It was essentially a class on the techniques associated with preparing for and participating in a debate, how to gather information to support your position and how to best present it. The teacher of the class was well respected by almost all his students because he treated everyone as if they were adults and expected them to be responsible. It was interesting to compare how the same "trouble" students from other classes changed their behavior in his. He taught a number of mnemonic techniques, and right at the beginning of the term he had us use one to learn the name and something about every other student in the class. Right off the bat every student in class got to know everyone else - which in a big school isn't always the case, and it really makes a difference in how students react towards one another. I remember how he handled people who were late to class. In some other classes the teachers simply gave warnings or some after school detention for being late. But this teacher had any student who was late go up in front of the class where they would explain why they were late. They then turned around so they could not see as the rest of the class voted on whether their lateness was justified or whether they got detention. Just as the class was named, they would present an argument for their case and try to persuade the class! It's been decades, but I still remember appreciating how we were treated in that class. Bravo Mr. Coe!

    There's a key word in your post: "detention." That teacher had a leg to stand on. He clearly had the support of the administration, as well as the parents. Nowadays, there is no detention. Administrators tear up pink slips right in front of the teachers and students. Any consequences for bad behavior is fought by the parents. Without a school culture of discipline, it's impossible to create a good class.

    I've just completed a forty year teaching career in an urban school setting. I taught at this school for twenty-two years and the other eighteen at another urban school. I had a great career. My secret was simple: If a teacher WANTS respect, he must extend the SAME respect to his students. It's a two way street. I taught English and History and I had the ability to make the two subjects "live" by gearing my instruction to a vantage point my students could relate to. I also made them laugh, because I always felt that to make the temperature of productivity RISE, I had to crack a few jokes in order to LOWER the tension. I loved my students (well, 90% of them, anyway!). and they knew it. If they trust their teacher, they'll respond positively. I believe that I changed the course of many lives, and I feel proud to have done so. I gave my life to something I really wanted to do. Yes, the world is different today, but kids still respond to respect and compassion on the part of their teacher. I was firm, but fair. I admonished, but never insulted or embarrassed any student. I always considered their feelings and my classes were always worthwhile. My "kids" used to tell me that I was "the bomb" (never learned what they meant by that), but I assume it meant something good. Anyway, at least I THINK it did. I can honestly say that I never had the problems a lot of other teachers had. Maybe I was just lucky, because I always remembered some of the lousy teachers I had as a kid ---- and was determined NOT to be like them.

    In the 1970, we (in France) were very well-behaved students because parents still had authority over their children. What ruined society's cohesiveness and children's obedience to authority (police, teachers, parents, leaders) is having taken away parental authority, initiated in the late 1970s and liberalism. Now, children becoming adults have less of a moral sense and discipline. These make children of the next generation adopt lower standards they pass on to their children, each generation gaining lower standards while in the background the governments [of the industrialised countries] advocate liberalism and reduce the importance of giving a good education to the masses. At the same time, governments have stripped teachers of their disciplinary powers and reduced the number of school wardens. At that time, the teachers were coming to class with an overall over their plain clothes. They delivered their courses by heart. We'd call them Sir X or Mrs Y while they would call us by our surnames. No familiarity. There can't be expected to have rules when the rules have been removed and declared obsolete. As a result, the people themselves don't want rules anymore.

    This is way more progressive than I thought it would be. If this was made in 1947 why did most of my teachers in the 80's not know about these techniques? The few who did, frankly, just seemed like better people and bucked the trend out of personal morality. I'm teaching a class next week and will try a few of these techniques.

    I was wondering the same. Actually most people in leadership and "middle management" of so many religions, organizations, and teaching situations do and have gotten solid advice since this time. Ive heard the private trainings and had family in high positions of school systems. And yet i still wrote my first sentence. The message gets out there, but its just out there. Kind of like how almost everyone "knew" chain letters like "Facebook will be free for you if you share this." Was bogus, but the raw human impulse was there to share that as a post anyway. things are out there or not out there and its like they arent or are despite.

    It's not reasonable to expect a teacher to be a master of diplomacy. The problem with this film is that it implies that a teacher never needs to use punishment. This sort of thinking, I think, led to the present situation where a teacher is often powerless to punish a student.

    @@matthewbartsh9167Oh, you missed the point and just took the lesson YOU wanted to see and not the actual point. The point is similar to the point I make to people about the U.S. military NOW vs. around this time frame. Diplomacy is needed when, yes you may have the authority, but you are markedly outnumbered by students/other nuclear armed nations. The Teacher/United States military can’t clomp around throwing punishments left and right because, as you saw, that only breeds resentment, disorder, and contempt. The reason he can’t go throwing around punishments is because if he makes them more unruly, it disrupts the classroom learning and that’s his ultimate goal is to educate. Now when all diplomatic options have been exhausted, THEN you go nuclear and punish. Teacher wise, not military wise. The goal of a teacher is to educate.

    I agree with the idea of punishing the entire class accomplishing nothing...when I was in the 6th grade just before Christmas break, a girl kept acting up in class and the teacher said if she didnt stop she'd cancel our class Christmas party that we were all looking forward to. The girl kept acting up and the teacher punished the whole class for the actions this one girl. While we could all hear the other classes enjoying their Christmas parties, we had to sit and do an assignment. All this did was make us resent the teacher and the naughty girl responsible. The only thing we learned from this was that its unfair to punish innocent people for the actions of others. 😒

    I moved to and started teaching in Italy many years ago and noticed that tactic..punish the whole class..is often used. At first I was appalled. In theory I still think it is unfair. But I must say, it often works here, it causes the culprits to change their behavior. This may be though because in Italy there is much more camaraderie and sense of community in a class..partly because they are the same class all through each school level, ,( all five years of elementary school the same classmates, same for middle school and High school..there is no such thing as electives) so they know each other very well and feel responsible for each other..In America, at least as I remember it as a kid, we were much more independent, everyone pretty much out for themselves. So that tactic would probably not work. there.

    I think we should recognize that we are a community. If one person wins, we all win and if they lose, we all lose. For example, many people become rich after growing up poor. How many of them go back home to help those that helped them to get them where they are now? I hear of people doing this from other cultures, but not too much in the U.S. It seems unfair when this tactic is used, but it’s the reality of our community and our society. We are responsible for one another. Everyone does their part however small or big. Without each other, we are nothing.

    Yep, students respect teachers who actually seem to care about their jobs and their students. Seeing awful teachers complaining about their students is amusing. Probably the sort who make it obvious to their class they don't want to be there and never help their students, then complain about their students having attitude towards them, but they don't want to look inwards so they just blame their students and gen z as a whole somehow being "different" from kids in the past like we're some sort of alien species with inherent disrespect, chaos and evil in us that kids in the past have never had. It's like... gen z and alpha are NOT evil aliens, and the people going on about how we suck as students wouldn't have gotten a class any better no matter how far into the past they look. I've been in very well-behaved classes and not-so well-behaved ones, and the difference has always been the teacher (and how well they control the class or simply seem to care), not the year I'm thinking back to.

As soon as I got the students on board and moving in a direction of feeling successful at the level they are on, teaching becomes facilitating. And in 1st grade, there is quite a spectrum of levels of learning and behaviors. In fact, Classroom Management was my number one priority and favorite thing to do. I knew if I had that under control, everything else was easy.🙋‍♀️🥰🇺🇲🇬🇧

I'm not saying that they were bad teachers, only that being friendly and respected does not replace experience.. Today's teachers in western countries are much more under pressure because of the lax attitude to discipline by parents and lack of support and mixed messages they (the parents) get from society and especially Internet. Everyone is an expert. Children themselves are the same as they have always been..

    Its a psychological game. Collective punishment is supposed to result in the "good kids" (rule followers) to bully the "bad kids" (free thinkers) into following the rules. By the way, collective punishment is a war crime according to the Geneva Convention, but hey, when has the U.S. government ever given a damn about commiting crimes? Never.

The core concepts of preserving human dignity , self-esteem, real world examples, a willingness to be self-deprecating, not blaming (and disciplining) the group for the actions of an individual and a focus on providing individual assistance are as timely today as they were then.

    Yes, it made perfect sense. Of course it won't work for all classrooms, but having a sense of humour and letting small things slide makes perfect sense. Disciplining or raising one's voice is (or can be seen as) a show of weakness and kids will feel as if they won if the teacher does it.

    You know, I come from Russia, with a rather strict discipline attitude at schools and universities. For a few months, I have been teaching to Dutch students... It was hell... They eat and talk during the lecture, come late, leave when they feel, and sincerely believe that me teaching them more means them studying less..... ((((

    jurisprudens oh yeah. I teach different countries, and I’ve found out that several students think it is the teacher who teaches them instead of them teaching themselves. Waiting for the teacher to spoon feed everything. I try each year to be more and more clear on my expectations.

    The problem of ratio between feet and yards at 9:00. Our whole class made the same mistake in calculus class- the problem was: Operating a truck costs so many cents per mile, plus a driver's wage of so many dollars per hour. But we forgot to differentiate between dollars and cents when constructing the equation. Our teacher said, "You guys, what's the difference between dollars and cents? There is a difference, albeit subtle."
