behaviour/misbehaviour.

procedures that are crucial for managing problem situations in the classroom,

- work with relevant theoretical sources,

- role play/simulation of chosen problematic educational situations, in order  to learn how to
manage them,

- videos, discussion, reflection,

- portfolio task


In order to complete the course succesfully, the students are supposed to write and submit a
portfolio task according to the following instructions:


1) Based on your experience, describe a situation involving inappropriate behaviour of a
pupil/pupils. Describe the whole context of the situation (WHAT HAPPENED?)


2) Analyze possible reasons of such behaviour/situation (WHY DID IT HAPPEN?)


3) Write down how was the situation sorted out by the teacher (other authority/ies). Add your
opinion. Was it the best solution at the moment? Do you agree/disagree with the solution? Give
reasons why. In case you disagree, suggest your own solution of the situation (HOW WAS THE
SITUATION SORTED OUT/HOW COULD IT BE SORTED OUT?)
