International Perspectives on Student Behavior

Identifying the best practices in school disciplinary matters is key to any learning environment.  While student discipline is often challenging for new teachers, more experienced teachers also benefit from inquiry into alternative forms of discipline.  This volume examines what approach educators use in ten other countries when addressing student misconduct.  In addition to classroom discipline, the volume also analyzes more serious forms of student misconduct, including criminal offenses.  New and experienced educators will benefit from exploring these successful strategies used globally in addressing student misconduct. -- Suzanne Eckes, professor, department of educational leadership and policy studies, Indiana University, president-elect, Education Law Association (ELA)
