Discuss how communicating clear and consistent messages can be used to communicate effectively with students.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Poorly articulated behavioral and social expectations and inconsistent ways of handling the results of mixed messages detract from a positive tone in any classroom. Behavioral and social expectations and the consequences for following (or not following) them should be communicated to students. Consequences, both positive and negative, must be consistent if students are to take teachers’ messages seriously.
