Research shows that discipline problems are prevalent in public schools and continue to be one of the greatest challenges in education. In Building Bridges , author Dr. Don Parker shows educators how to address this issue head-on. He shares an array of evidence-based strategies to build student-teacher relationships and create a welcoming learning environment that fosters student engagement, motivation, and achievement. Support students at risk by creating a positive school culture and building trust: Consider the student behaviors, characteristics, and experiences that are typically barriers to success in school. Learn how and why punitive punishments and zero-tolerance policies have failed to curb poor behavior in schools. Understand the importance of student-teacher relationships and the ways in which trust and positive relationships improve student behavior. Develop your ability to build positive student-teacher relationships through educational techniques, classroom management strategies, and teaching methods. Study the research that supports the many academic and social benefits of student-teacher relationships. Examine the ways in which school culture and climate affect the behavior of students and classroom engagement.
