Students Behaving Badly in Large Classes.
Carbone, Elisa
New Directions for Teaching and Learning, n77 p35-43 Spr 1999
By adopting interactive methods and being sensitive to students' concerns, teachers can minimize uncivil behavior, even in large classes. Solutions found helpful by a number of faculty members focus on several issues, including setting clear expectations, addressing majority needs and rights, taking a proactive approach, and personalizing large classes. Questionable methods for controlling student behavior are also discussed. (MSE)
