Alderman & MacDonald (2015) wrote a fascinating piece of research about the use of self-regulated learning strategies for classroom management called 'A Self-Regulatory Approach to Classroom Management: Empowering Students and Teachers' where they concluded that: "Development of motivation and self-regulated learning skills can take classroom management beyond the role of maintaining order in the classroom to empower students and teachers for lifetime learning."
The authors describe self-regulated learning, student strategies, and the classroom structure that supports motivation and self-regulation. This inspired us to create a new set of ten student-reflection worksheets that will allow teachers to get more out of detentions: click here to download a free sample or download all ten by clicking here!
This article explains what 'Self-Regulated Learning' is and how the principles of self-regulated learning can be applied to student behaviour and school discipline.
