Correct Answer - Option 4 : Non-involvement of students in activities
The teacher is responsible to keep the students active, disciplined, attentive, participative during the teaching-learning process. For all this, the teacher has to keep the students motivated so that they remain self-disciplined and actively perform in the classroom activity.
- In a broader sense, discipline mainly denotes self-discipline which is a process whereby a student comes to regulate his own behavior to fit in with his own purposes or the needs of others.
Management of discipline in schools:
- To maintain discipline in schools, it is very important to make the students feel responsible for their behavior.
- The indisciplined child may show lateness, noise-making, disrespect, disobedience, indifference, and cheating, etc. in his behavior. The teacher can easily observe the behavior of children and identify the indisciplined child of the classroom.
- After identifying the indisciplined children of the classroom, the teacher has to find out the reason for their indiscipline and try to remove it by engaging the child in productive activity.
- The child who is not engaged in any activity can disturb the class. So, the teacher should engage all the students actively in the teaching-learning process to remove indiscipline from the class.
- Indiscipline can be due to the unfavorable physical conditions in the classroom, academic failure, and some of the teacher-generated causes of indiscipline are poor teaching, rude behavior, discriminatory treatments, and indifference to problems of students.
Hence, it is concluded that the non-involvement of students in activities is the most potent reason for student indiscipline in schools.
