Editorial Review:

Product Description:
How does classroom management affect student achievement? What techniques do teachers find most effective? How important are schoolwide policies and practices in setting the tone for individual classroom management? In this follow-up to What Works in Schools, Robert J. Marzano analyzes research from more than 100 studies on classroom management to discover the answers to these questions and more. He then applies these findings to a series of "Action Steps"--specific strategies that educators can use to

• Get the classroom management effort off to a good start, • Establish effective rules and procedures, • Implement appropriate disciplinary interventions, • Foster productive student-teacher relationships, • Develop a positive "mental set," • Help students contribute to a positive learning environment, and • Activate schoolwide measures for effective classroom management. Marzano and his coauthors Jana S. Marzano and Debra Pickering provide real stories of teachers and students in classroom situations to help illustrate how the action steps can be used successfully in different situations. In each chapter, they also review the strengths and weaknesses of programs with proven track records. With student behavior and effective discipline a growing concern in schools, this comprehensive analysis is a timely guide to the critical role of classroom management in student learning and achievement.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Good, Research-Based Information
This book has been valuable in helping me prepare for another year of teaching. Caution: it is heavy on the research!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Hey, this is still a good book to buy.
I have read other reviews and I have found a lot of negativity.
This book does tell you that these (the strategies named in the book) strategies do work because of research indicating that it does affect student behavior. And, it does indeed tell you how to do things in the classroom, and it tells you what to change or address. So, yes go ahead and buy this book...its good stuff. The actual book is much smaller than the photo.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Classroom Management
I bought this book for a graduate course I'm currently taking. I wish I had this book years ago, when I first started teaching. Classroom management is the most important part of effective teaching. This book combines research and clearly explains what's most effective and what isn't.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Help for new teachers
"Classroom Management That Works: Research-Based Strategies for Every Teacher" is a good book for new or about to be teachers. The book will give the novice clear explanations and root know-how to managing you class.




Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - This title is a bit misleading
I think like many classroom teachers, one of my main difficulties is finding a good classroom management style that works. So I was looking forward to reading this book and getting some new ideas and information. However, the book does not really go into much detail about how to implement the strategies that they list. They really just kind of scratch the surface, naming a few effective strategies, but then spending the majority of their time talking about HOW effective these strategies are.
