Reviews

As an educator who taught and supervised teachers on all levels as well as well as undergraduate and graduate college students, I am not aware of any other book that offers such a comprehensive and state-of-the-art perspective of classroom management. This excellent book provides new and veteran teachers at all levels to build successful, innovative strategies and techniques for the rest of their careers.--Annemarie V. Russo Romagnoli


Dr. Pagliaro presents multiple models and strategies for supporting positive behaviors in the complex, diverse, and rapidly changing classrooms of the 21st century. She provides a wealth of information on up-to-date thinking in the area of classroom management, guiding questions that encourage self-reflection for individual processing, and topics for study groups. Mostly, she brings the discussion back to what individual teachers can do to keep themselves knowledgeable, centered, competent, and in control when confronted with behavioral challenges. -- Cathy Rikhye, Ed.D. Educator or Bully? offers a clear, concise, and refreshing way to manage a classroom by showing teachers how to empower students to take responsibility for themselves and for each other. It is my opinion that the guidelines presented to accomplish this goal should be instituted system-wide in every school district. This book contains many great classroom management examples covering K-12 classes and is backed by solid research. An added bonus is that it is an enjoyable, pleasant read. I will use this book in my staff development consulting and would also recommend that novices read and learn its contents before they get trapped into the currently predominant way of managing classrooms. -- Vincent S. Ziccolella, Ph.D. As an educator who taught and supervised teachers on all levels as well as well as undergraduate and graduate college students, I am not aware of any other book that offers such a comprehensive and state-of-the-art perspective of classroom management. This excellent book provides new and veteran teachers at all levels to build successful, innovative strategies and techniques for the rest of their careers. -- Annemarie V. Russo Romagnoli Pagliaro strikes the perfect balance between theory and practice in this context. Many pedagogical illustrations support accepted theory in this primer on classroom management. Highly recommended for even the most seasoned teacher! -- Lance R. Angell, Ph.D. At last a book that combines the many theories of classroom management with practical applications. Pagliaro provides many suggestions to implement appropriate classroom management techniques with an emphasis on self-reflection. The coaching rubrics provide a resource for self-evaluation and professional development. This book is a valuable resource for all educators pre-service and in-service. -- Ernest J. Piermarini, Ed.D.
