Written Assignment # 4 Conflict Management Exercise

Step 1: I would discreetly approach a student and ask if they would mind discussing in private after class if their persistent chatting disrupted my instruction and irritated me. This would happen on several occasions. I would inform the kids that all conversations are kept private as soon as they approach me after class and no one else can witness us conversing. I would make a deal with the student and let him/her know that chatting excessively in class is disruptive to both the class and myself. When I'm not teaching, the student is free to speak as much as he/she likes as long as he/she acts and behaves appropriately around me and his/her peers. When I'm not teaching, he/she can converse softly and not create too much noise, allowing the other students to work peacefully. Step 2: Until the student stops listening to me and the problem worsens despite my numerous attempts to talk to them, I won't speak out. I would seek guidance from my colleagues on what to do, regardless of whether they believe the child is the true problem or that I am failing in my role as a teacher. I would then inquire as to whether I ought to notify the responsible parties, and I would inform my peers that the kid has consistently disrupted class and used offensive language. Maybe I would take my coworkers' counsel to heart and try applying it to myself. If I had to report this to the principal, I would. I would even inquire with my colleagues as to whether the student's family is experiencing mental health issues, despair, abuse, or other issues. Perhaps I should ask my coworkers if I should speak with the student's parents. In the meantime, I will continue to warn the student that if he/she misbehaves and talks to me, I will have to speak with his/her parents and discuss possible future consequences with him. Step 3: We would talk for a long time about some of the things the kid had said in class, and I would explain to them how it affected me as a teacher and may affect other students. I may say something like, "It makes me sad when you yell out curse words," or perhaps "I don't like it when you talk explicitly in class or gossip with other students while I'm teaching a lesson." In addition, I may express to the student my displeasure with his/her behavior while also telling him/her how much I value the time he/she spends speaking with the other students and myself. Simply said, there are appropriate times and places to talk to your peers. I might even let the student know how other students feel about him or her and discuss whether other students have also reported his/her behavior. Step 4: The learner would benefit from a genuine exam. I might be able to figure out why the student is generally talking loudly in class if I take a look at how they are regularly. A student may struggle to concentrate and maintain composure in class for a variety of reasons, such as having a strong personality, having particular requirements, or exhibiting symptoms of ADHD. The student may struggle to concentrate or work quietly during a lecture since they require a lot of attention. Even if the child requires teacher assistance in the classroom, I would then ask the school if the student would need an IEP or special needs services.
