    Cooperative Discipline Model

    Linda Albert
    What is the Cooperative Discipline Model?
    It shows teachers how to work hand in hand with students to solve discipline
    problems.
    Usually children will misbehave because they want something. This model
    surrounds this idea.
    Your first step is determining what exactly the student wants.
    Encouragement strategies will also help to prevent the misbehaviour.
    The Cooperative Discipline is a process that promotes collaboration. Building a
    strong partnership with students and parents is essential to maintaining a positive
    discipline program that works.

    What are the four goals of misbehaviour?
    1) Attention
    - These students choose misbehaviour
    to get extra attention. They want to be
    center stage, so they distract teachers
    and classmates to gain an audience and
    special recognition.
    - For example: making noises, using
    foul language, and creating
    unnecessary interruptions during class
    time.

    2) Power
    - These students want to be the boss of
    themselves, the teacher, and the whole
    class.
    - At the very least, these students want to
    show others that "you can`t push me
    around."
    - These students aren`t likely to comply
    with classroom rules or teacher requests.
    - They will challenge and argue with
    teachers until they think they`ve had the
    "last word."

    3) Revenge
    - These students want to lash out at their
    teachers to get even for real or imagined
    hurts. Some students want to lash out at
    their teachers or classmates to get even
    for real or imagined hurts.
    - Students may sometimes threaten
    physical harm or get indirect physical
    revenge by breaking, damaging, or
    stealing.
    - They also may try to manipulate you
    into feeling hurt or guilty.

    4) Avoidance of failure
    - Student feels inadequate and that they
    can`t live up to expectations put on them.
    - To compensate, they behave in ways
    that make them appear inadequate, by
    procrastinating, not completing their
    work, or pretending to have a disability.
    - These students hope that everyone will
    back off and leave them alone so they
    won`t have to Iace the Iact that they
    aren`t perIorming up to their potential.

    Remember that the students
    choose their behaviour, and we as
    the teacher have the power to
    influence, not control their
    choices.
    The change starts with the teacher.
    We need to learn how to interact
    with students so they`ll want to
    choose appropriate behaviour and
    comply with the classrooms rules.

    Does every misbehaviour really have one of these four goals?
    Of course not! No theory no matter how complete applies to every situation one hundred
    percent of the time. Yet these four goals can help you classify the misbehaviour more than
    90% of the time!

    The
    Cooperative
    Discipline
    model
    assumes that

    students will misbehave again if
    the strategies are not accompanied
    by encouragement techniques that
    build self-esteem and strengthen
    the students` motivation to
    cooperate and learn.
























    Principles of Prevention
    Attention-Seeking Behaviour
    1) Catch student being good by giving lots of attention for appropriate behaviour.
    2) Teach student to ask directly for attention when needed.
    Power Behaviour
    1) Allow voice and choice so student has options and feels heard.
    2) Grant legitimate power through hands joined discipline and decision making.
    3) Delegate responsibility so student feels sense of responsible power.
    4) Avoid and defuse confrontations.
    Revenge Behaviour
    1) To build a caring relationship with the student.
    2) Teach student how to express hurt and hostility appropriately and invite student to talk to us when he
    or she is upset.
    Avoidance-of-Failure Behaviour
    1) Encourage an 'I can rather than 'I can`t belieI.
    2) Foster friendships to end social isolation.
