Every year I kind of grind my teeth because all of a sudden, admin knows how to protect the learning environment and everyone is on the same page. Disruptions are removed from the classroom because the learning environment is not sacrosanct. That is why I get so upset with one student being able to derail an entire class. And, it's not my imagination either. Recent research really does show that disruptive students greatly impact their peers and that disruption follows their peers for life. Here's a short article so lurkers don't think I'm making this up: https://fordhaminstitute.org/national/commentary/long-term-effects-disruptive-peers Here is another actual research paper published in 2018. The above link is basically a summary of another paper: https://faculty.econ.ucdavis.edu/faculty/scarrell/DV_Long-run.pdf Teachers know this information already, but even I was shocked at how far reaching the effects are. Essentially, a lot of it can be boiled down to a trauma response. It's wild how nonchalant a lot of admin, parents, and society and general have become regarding student behavior. submitted by /u/NervousEmotion1099 [link] [comments]
