Discipline in Schools: A Source Book.
North Carolina State Dept. of Public Instruction, Raleigh.
The problem of student discipline is approached by synthesizing much that is known about child development, interpersonal relationships, identity, self-image, and change into a philosophy for individual growth and self-fulfillment. Goals, and methods for achieving them, are suggested that would help prevent discipline problems. These are to help each student to feel worthwhile, make the school experience more interesting, make and enforce more effective rules, involve parents, and provide effective security. Specific techniques and programs are presented for dealing with discipline problems when they do occur. Barriers described that block school personnel from making constructive changes needed in order to solve school discipline problems include unwritten rules; fear of change; and lack of money, time, authority, and knowledge. Suggestions are offered for overcoming each barrier. The final sections contain a discussion of legal aspects and appendixes with an annotated bibliography; footnotes; and the questionnaire and a summary of "A Study of Perceptions of Discipline Problems in Secondary Schools of North Carolina."
