Effective ways for the classroom management

Abstract EN

This study was conducted in order to determine the effective techniques of classroom management that can be used to minimize classroom misbehavior and maximize effective learning.

Classroom management is probably the most difficult part of teaching .High school teachers in Iraq, like in all countries, face instances of misbehavior in the form of off-task behavior or more serious disruptions.

When a teacher is forced to deal with constant disruptions or a teacher cannot control his or her classroom then learning is not taking place.

Thus, the objective of this study is to determine what methods of classroom management are available for teachers.

This study used different methods to gather information on the best ways of classroom management.

There have been many studies that serve to support universal classroom methods of classroom management techniques.

Throughout my humble experience as teacher in college of police I found many Iraqi universities professors and high school teachers are still sticking with traditional (outdated) ways and techniques of teaching English regardless of their learner's needs and motivations.

Thus the teachers have to think with the central question being “what do these students need and how can I meet those needs.” The significance of this study is that Iraqi and Arab teachers (who use English language as a second language as a means of communication) who are having problems coping with misbehavior in their classroom can use the techniques recommended by this study in order to improve their classroom management.

This study found that there are varieties of techniques taken from the classroom management theories that aid in improving classroom management.
