Summary / extract
+ keywords: |
This CD-ROM, specifically designed by colleagues at Northumbria University, UK with lecturers in mind, provides advice on how to deal with difficult student behaviour.
Nine problematic situations are discussed to include, for example, students:
Whose spoken English is hard to understand;
Who are unwell in class;
Who fall asleep;
Who become emotionally upset;
Who fail to prepare;
Who are inattentive
The CD provides a short video vignette of each incident, followed by some questions that users, usually working in small groups, are invited to discuss. They may then select up to three possible teacher responses to each incident, and can see how each response might play itself out.
The CDs primary purpose is to generate discussion among users to help them deal with such incidents, rather than to prescribe specific courses of action in the classroom.
