Synopsis

Discipline as a School Problem offers a physician’s approach to chaotic classrooms.

This nonfiction work helps teachers and principals diagnose the roots of misbehavior and map practical, constructive steps for treatment. Written through a lens of psychology and human development, it uses the idea of diagnosing a “case” to guide disciplined, individualized progress in schools.

This edition lays out a clear three-part framework: discipline as an individual issue, as a class issue, and as a school-wide concern. It emphasizes understanding the learning environment, the dynamics of crowds, and the role of teachers and leaders in shaping a productive school culture. Readers will find concrete guidance for turning observation into action, with a steady focus on real-world classroom needs.
  • A practical method for diagnosing disciplinary problems like a medical case, not just applying rules.
  • Tools to analyze behavior, motives, and the impacts of group dynamics on students.
  • Strategies for teachers and principals to lead, motivate, and maintain a positive classroom climate.
  • Considerations for classroom management, student welfare, and school policy from a legal and developmental perspective.
Ideal for educators seeking a structured, humane approach to discipline that starts with understanding the individual student, the class, and the school as a whole.
