ENHANCING STUDENT LEARNING THROUGH CLASSROOM MANAGEMENT

I. INTRODUCTION

 Classroom management is vital for creating an environment that minimizes

disruptions, maximizes instruction time, and encourages students to engage in
learning. Research indicates that effective classroom management contributes to
positive learning outcomes.

II. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

 MOTIVATION OF THE TOPIC.

- We all know the struggle. We teach and teach and reteach and work with
individuals or small-groups and, despite our efforts, that one student just doesn’t
get it. Or we try one behavior management or modification technique after
another and just can’t get the desired behavior from that student. Learning
difficulties or emotional trauma are unfortunately the cause of issues like these all
too often. However, many times the root of the problem may simply be that we
are not adequately motivating our students. Effectively motivating your students
cannot erase every problem, but it can be a solution or preventative to many
problems that students and teachers experience in the classroom.
Of course, what motivates one student might not motivate another. Some
students are intrinsically motivated. These are students that are motivated from
something within. Intrinsically motivated students might simply have a deep
desire to succeed and are, therefore, motivated to do well in all that they do. In
some cases, intrinsic motivation comes from utilizing a topic that a student is
particularly interested in. If students are interested in the topic, then they are
intrinsically motivated to listen and learn. Other students are extrinsically
motivated. These students need some outside factor to boost motivation. Grades
are extrinsic motivators for some students. Rewards and praise can also be
effective extrinsic motivators. Regardless of the kind of motivator that students
respond to, there are techniques that can be used to increase motivation for both
intrinsically and extrinsically motivated students.

 CLEAR EXPECTATIONS

- First of all, we cannot expect high motivation if students do not fully understand
the ultimate goal. Therefore, it is critically important that at the beginning of every
lesson or unit teachers let students know exactly what they will be expected to do
or know at the end. It also helps if there is a life application involved. For
example, at the end of a money unit, you would expect students to be able to add
various amounts of money. By providing a class store with small items to buy if
they are able to accurately add the amounts of money, they are provided the
 opportunity to display that knowledge, and the goal/expectation provided
motivation for their learning.

 CLASSROOM ROUTINES

- Students need structure and familiarity as they continue to learn and develop,
and classroom routines and procedures give students a predictable day. They'll
know what to expect each day and feel more confident and secure in their daily
activities. For younger children, a routine engages them in learning and helps
them feel safe in their environment, while it helps older children know what to
expect and feel more comfortable. This is why classroom routines are important
to the learning process.
Routines in the classroom make class time more enjoyable and productive. They
offer students a sense of stability. By having classroom rules and procedures that
you follow, your students will know your expectations. Behavioral problems and
distractions can decrease when students understand how to act.
Effective classroom procedures and routines offer many benefits to students.
Students who know how they should act in the classroom can be more
successful because they can learn and achieve more. Students will spend more
time learning instead of getting ready for class or asking questions about what
they should do because you've streamlined the process for daily tasks.

 CATCHING STUDENTS ATTENTON

- Attention plays a very important role in students' success in the

classroom. Attention allows students to “tune out” unrelated information,
background noise, visual distractions, and even their own thoughts. By doing
this, students are able to concentrate and focus on the important information
being given by teachers. For younger students, clapping a rhythm and having the
students respond with the same rhythm can be very effective. In a physical
education setting a whistle can be a good choice. Some teachers find that silently
raising their hand can act as an effective cue.
 It is necessary to pay focused attention to something in order to process it and
commit it to long-term memory. Attention also influences motivation, and it is
easier for the brain to retain information that is motivating. For students, honing
attention skills is an important part of successful learning.

III. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

IV. SIGNIFCANTS OF THE STUDY

 WHO WILL BENEFIT

- For students, well-managed classrooms can lead to fewer behavioral problems,
stronger engagement and better academic performance. For educators,
successful classroom management can make their lessons more effective and
keep stress at bay.
 HOW THEY WILL BE BENIFITTED
 MATCH THE RECCOMENDATION
 ASSUMPTION OF THE STUDY
- This assumption contain beliefs that reflect a teacher-centered approach, one that focuses
on the coverage of the discipline and chapters. The rationale behind this approach rests on
the assumption that if a teacher loses control of a class, it is very hard to regain the upper
hand.
