Discipline and School Spirit | Edutopia

Discipline and School Spirit | Edutopia

This blog post mentions the “rediscovering” of the importance of:
·                     project-based learning
·                     social-emotional competence
·                     school climate
·                     sense of purpose and accomplishment

The article shows a relation between classroom discipline problems and a classroom/school whose structure may not call forth values and behaviours, such as:
·                     leadership
·                     cooperation
·                     teamwork
·                     mutual respect, among others

In this digital age, the above principles and the principles of John Dewey, as mentioned in the article, can all be applied, so we can continue “moving in the right direction” as concluded in this post by Professor Maurice Elias.
