Alfie Kohn
A vital alternative to all the traditional manuals that consist of techniques for imposing control, Beyond Discipline has earned the status of an education classic. Just as memorizing someone else’s right answers fails to promote students’ intellectual development, so does complying with someone else’s expectations for how to act fail to help students develop socially or morally. Kohn contrasts the idea of discipline, in which things are done to students to control their behavior, with an approach in which we work with students to create caring communities where decisions are made together.$23.95 detailsbuy
