Larry,
I have a list of 10 “norms” that I request of students. Some of them are: come in ready to learn, know what you need to work on, make room for others, have a good attitude about learning, etc. These are helpful, as if a student is acting up, I just ask them to refer to our list. I also ask my students to make a list of norms they ask ME to follow! Some of them are: Have a sense of humor, multiple chances to master something, have breaks. This has helped me cultivate a atmosphere of mutual respect.
Larry, With the help of advance technology now it becomes easier to manage the classroom. Classroom management software such as Faronics Inisght ( http://www.faronics.com/products/insight/ ) really help to easily collaborate the teachers with students. Monitoring there activities and managing them will be too simple for teachers. Engagement is one of the important issue teacher facing now these days. To increase the engagement in classroom teacher can take the help of smart devices such as laptop.
