Discipline

The topic of discipline was disgusted in class today by Evan, Jessica, and Megan. They started their presentation with a great cartoon poking fun at the idea of using intimidation as a means of discipline amongst other things. Next they gave a brief history of discipline. They described why we need discipline and different types including time out, assertive discipline and body language. They showed a video on corporal punishment within a school in Texas. The video was a good part of the presentation because it gave me insight into a type of discipline I do not agree with, but I now see this schools reasoning for using corporal punishment. I liked how the group did not put their opinion about discipline into the presentation. They delivered facts and information to the class and created a lot of discussion opportunities. I thought they did a great job!
