Management Self-Evaluation

Purpose:  In class we reviewed several class management styles. You will eventually develop one of your own. During your 401 clinical and during student teaching you will try several styles to see which one "fits best." Therefore, it is important to do a self-evaluation and figure out which styles you think will work best for you and which ones you would like to experiment with.  Please keep in mind that data show that some styles are more effective than others. You will need to do a bit of research to find out which ones these are. Do not waste your time "experimenting" with ineffective methodologies.

Instructions:  Please write a standard reflection paper addressing which style fits you best, which style you would like to try and why and which styles have been shown to be most effective. Please use the standard reflection paper guidelines.

Evaluation:  Your work will be evaluated using the standard reflection paper rubric. When done completely, this assignment will meet the ISBE core standards on instructional delivery and classroom management.
