As her teacher you should not make

tough at home and I’m tough at school.
Kurt’s teacher: This boy is a problem. He
is making other children miserable and
giving our school a bad name. Today in
assembly, I will announce to all learners
that we do not tolerate such behavior. I
will send him to the guidance counselor. I
will warn him that if he persists, we will
expel him from school.
If a teacher notices bullying in the school
or classroom, he/she must act quickly to
stop it. The teacher should talk the student
involve in bullying in private and ask why
she/he is doing it. Talk to him properly
and make him understand bullying is not
good and how it affects people. If this
action fails, call the attention of the
parents and seek the assistance of the
guidance counselor to discuss a solution
to the problem. And so that they will be
reprimanded in private about their
behavior.

What alternative action/s could suggest in

order to promote positive discipline?

Case 6: On Adaptability Struggle

Janelle: Online learning is new to me. I am used to
face to face classes. I will inform my teacher that u
cannot attend online classes regularly and I cannot
submit my requirements on time.
Janelle’s teacher: This student may just be making
an excuse for not attending our online classes and
not submitting on time. As their teacher, I need to
be able to communicate to my class that I will not
tolerate complacency and that this rule must
equally and strictly apply to all.
What alternative action/s could suggest in order to
promote positive discipline?
Due to pandemic, schools were forced to switch
from face to face classes to online education. This
only classes caused stressed to the learners since
they have to adjust this new way of learning. As
their teacher we should be considerate of the
learners’ circumstances. Allow them to have
enough time to submit their requirements but
encourage them to try their best to cope and keep
on encouraging them that they can do it.
If Janelle cannot access online learning, provide her
with other option for her to be able to continue her
education.

Case 7: Technical Issues

Allen: I really wanted to pass the subject, attend
our online classes on time and learn our lessons
well. But because of my poor internet connection
and I am only using a mobile phone, it is difficult
for me to catch up with the discussions as well with
the required tasks. I should just drop out from
school.
If Allen was unable to participate in the lesson due
to poor internet service, the teacher should provide
him with printed materials that are aligned with
their lessons so that he is not leaved behind with his
classmates.

Allen’s teacher: I noticed that Allen is having

difficulty with internet connection since he keeps
signing on and off during our online classes. If this
continues, there’s no way for him to understand our
lessons as well as other students in the class.
However, I have to treat my students equally to
avoid favoritism. I should not give him special
treatment.

promote positive discipline?

learner relationship but make sure that your learners will still feel that your care for
