Now in its third edition, Jane Bluestein's best-selling book "21st Century Discipline" offers teachers practical and effective techniques for building classroom environments and relationships that encourage cooperative student behavior - and actually increases the amount of time spent on instruction. Essential topics include: Behavior and the brain; Creating win-win power classroom dynamics in a win-lose world; Teaching students self-management rather than obedience; Choices, contingencies, consequences, and follow-through; Planning and pacing for the differentiated classroom with large numbers of non-traditional learners; Encouraging independence and problem-solving; Consistency and modeling, and more. "21st Century Discipline" techniques are based on nearly two decades of successful field experience to their credit. The author supports them with a full calendar of workshops and in-service trainings. The book also includes a generous collection of sidebars, case examples, self-assessments, reproducibles, tips on self-care and support networks, implications for administrators, a bibliography, glossary, notes, and index.
