Activity 1-Principles of Classroom Management

Classroom management is a primary concern for teachers. Though classroom management success comes over time, it's important for new and experienced teachers alike to hone good classroom management skills so that they and their students can get the most out of their time together. Good classroom management boils down to a contract of mutual respect between students and the teacher -- but understanding how to draft the contract with students can be challenging at times.

Good practical measures to effectively manage classrooms in which ICT is integrated:

      ICT use policy must be clearly communicated to all students

      Students must be actively engaged at all times

      Tasks should not be set too easy or too difficult for students to complete

      Teacher should communicate all expectations clearly to students before they perform given tasks.

Plan effectively based on ICT resources that are available.
