During this time of remote and hybrid instruction, virtual classroom management and discipline are pressing priorities for many educators. Some schools have adopted the same reward-and-punishment systems that they used during in-person instruction. Others are taking a teaching-and-learning approach to discipline. In this webinar, we hear from teachers and administrators who are implementing a reimagined approach to discipline and share practical ways in which their schools are supporting students.
In this roundtable discussion, we explore questions such as:
- What makes discipline challenging for teachers in a virtual environment?
- What are the similarities and differences between supporting students in-person versus virtually?
- How do we foster self-discipline? Why is this an important alternative to more common reward-and-punishment systems of discipline?
- How do we support students when they make behavior mistakes?
- What is the role of the principal and or school counselor? How do we enlist families as partners?
