Disruptive Behaviour Talking out of turn

Causes of disruptive behavior :


- Refer to Dreikurs 4 mistaken goal (seeking attention)
- When seeking attention, students talk out, show off, interrupt others, and demand teacher
attention.
Appropriate strategies to overcome the disruptive behavior :
1) Theories of Assertive Tactic (Lee and Marlene Canter)
- Teachers should act assertively right away in dealing with a behaviour, as opposed to
passively dealing with the behaviour later.
- Referring to the case, the teacher should correct the student right away after the student do
the disruptive behavior by reminding the student that he/she cannot talk without the teachers
permission or when the teacher not asking him/her to answer the question.
- Example : Ali, I am asking Ahmad to answer the question, not you
2) Theories of Instructional Management (Jacob Kounin)
- Teachers must learn how to correct one pupil's behaviour in a way that changes the behaviour
of others ( Ripple Effect).
- Referring to the case, the teacher should attend the disruptive behavior by reminding the
student who does the disruptive behavior but the way the teacher reminds the student should
include reminding the other students.
- Example : Class, once again I want to remind you that you should raise your hand and wait
for my permission before you can answer to my question.
