Mr. Joon, a middle school health teacher, heard many horror stories about Stuart from his colleagues over the years. "Just wait until you get Stuart!" they said. It has finally happened. Stuart's name appears on Mr. Joon's class roster for the fall term
As Mr. Joon makes out the seating chart for his first period health class, he puts Stuart in the front center row where he can keep close watch. How might Mr. Joon's behavior create the discipline problem he is trying to avoid?
What will be an ideal response?
Teachers can establish expectations for their students and these expectations can be self-fulfilling. If Mr. Joon expects Stuart to misbehave, and he lets Stuart know this by placing him in the front, center desk, Stuart might try to live up to Mr. Joon's expectation and misbehave.
