Introduction / Objectives / Target Participants
Introduction
The roles and the work of teachers are subject to change with changing times. Discipline is not just the duty of teachers on the discipline panel and management is not just a skill needed in the business world. In order to achieve the best learning and teaching outcome, teachers need to equip themselves to handle classes with complex social groups and individual dynamics.
In the belief that discipline starts with self-management of one's own emotional intellect, a component facilitating personal growth of teachers is included in the programme. Theories, which underpin application and practice in the classroom and other school situations will also be taught. Knowledge and skill in the management of behavioural problems will be introduced and real classroom and school discipline cases will be used for analysis and self-reflection, thereby further enhancing teachers' awareness and skills in the area.
Objectives
The programme is designed to meet the following objectives:
