Alternative Discipline Can Benefit Learning
Mergler, Mary Schmid; Vargas, Karla M.; Caldwell, Caroline
Phi Delta Kappan, v96 n2 p25-30 Oct 2014
Schools across the country are changing how they discipline students by implementing research- and evidence-based disciplinary practices that have yielded positive results for schools and students. These disciplinary practices--known as Restorative Justice, Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports, and social and emotional learning--largely aim to keep students in the classroom and modify student behavior by equipping students with the knowledge and support systems to address the root causes of misbehavior.
