Principles of Classroom Management focuses on the teacher's role as a professional decision-maker in creating positive learning environments that help influence students to behave productively and strive for academic success, rather than focusing on rewards and punishments. Grounded in both theory and practice, it provides a very practical system to guide your decision-making process and foster supportive classroom environments. Principles, theoretical perspectives, and empirical findings provide a foundation for you to confidently make professional decisions with respect to classroom behavior issues. An array of decision-making options guide you in thinking about how to approach specific classroom management situations and choose from a range of strategies designed to prevent disruptive behavior and influence appropriate behavior.

The 8th Edition incorporates updated research, examples, and real-world classroom cases throughout the text. Increased emphasis is placed on relationship building, culturally relevant pedagogy, teacher self-care strategies, and universal design for learning. Both foundational and belief-based strategies are presented as classroom intervention strategies for working with students who exhibit chronic behavior problems.
