EDUCATION AND LIFESTYLE...

How To Deal With Students Disruptive Behaviour?
By: Paulina Sandagon-Tabuzo
STUDENTS UNRULY BEHAVIOR... A TEACHER CONCERN AND DILEMMA.

Teachers are said to be the facilitators of learning. The transformation of students’ lives into meaningful and productive citizens anchored on the hands of their teachers- as second parents. But, teachers’ roles are not only limited through instilling knowledge or information among students but also they play the most significant role like dealing with students’ disruptive behaviors in the four-corner of the classroom.

According to Elliot and Place, disruptive behavior in school is not a new phenomenon but is still brought to peoples’ attention worldwide as a major concern. In a classroom, one can observe a multitude of different movements. Some movements have a purpose and are planned, like fetching a book that is needed, while other movements do not. Some of the movements are on-task and some off-task and some movements are perceived as disruptive, and some are not.

Teachers should examine the impact of modifying the classroom environment in reducing disruptive behaviors among students and encourage them to actively engage in academic activities.

One of the important roles of teachers is to determine what intervention strategies to carry out in dealing with students who exhibit disruptive behaviours.

Much of the attention currently given to improve students’ academic achievement addresses issues of the curriculum, instructional strategies, and intervention or services for struggling learners. However, it would not be attainable if teachers are unable to address some common, but rampant issues inside the four-corner of the classrooms. 

Successful classroom teaching can be side-tracked by students distracting and defiant behaviors.  Some have perceived that an excessive amount of energy is given to a few students by teachers, parents, and school administrators. Often, with little or no improvement in either behavior or academics, students should always be guided by their teachers.

More and more children from troubled, chaotic homes are bringing well-developed patterns of antisocial behavior to school. 

While demonstrating a lesson, teachers cannot avoid seeing students exhibiting high levels of disruptive behaviors such as speaking with other students without any permission, talking out f turn, getting out of the seat and walking around the classroom, disregarding teachers’ direction or instruction, and refusing to engage in-class activities.  

Selecting effective classroom management can help teachers deal with an important issue that may hinder the learning and teaching process to eliminate some issues inside the classroom. 

In this sense, the teacher must conduct the practice of modifying the classroom learning environment to decrease problem behavior- an empirically validated behavioral change strategy among students.

A teacher must choose or enhance strategies that they believe would most benefit their class.
 
It is of utmost importance that teachers would be able to develop and implement effective prevention and provide intervention strategies in reducing disruptive behaviors while promoting positive discipline. 

To prevent disruptive behavior in the classroom, teachers should establish behavioral expectations at the beginning of the school year.  

Like checking of attendance, lateness, class participation, cheating and appropriate conduct should be discussed in the classroom.

In the arena of providing quality education among students, teachers must continuously lay-out the phases of carrying out interventions that would serve as an avenue to reaching the primary mission and vision of the Department of Education (DepEd).
