Positive behaviour = better learning? This article argues for relationships over detentions ▶️ edu.rsc.org/endpoint/why... #iteachchem #uked

'Detentions don't address the underlying cause.' One teacher shares their approach to behaviour management, emphasising positive relationships 👉 edu.rsc.org/endpoint/why... #chatchemistry

Detentions vs. positive relationships: Which works better for student behaviour? This article argues for focusing on understanding the root causes of behaviour, not just punishment. What do you think? edu.rsc.org/endpoint/why... #edusky #scichat
