Who is Jacob Kounin?

Kounin is a classroom behaviourist theorist

Best known for his two studies done in 1970

students

OVERLAPPINGThe teacher can have procedures that will allow the teacher to be

effective when two situations occur at the same time.For example, if a student is done with an assessment or an assignment early

have something for them to do other activitie ssuch (anotherassignment, reading a book, or a quiet enrichment exercise)

then, teacher will move around the room to answer question orassist struggling students.

Another example, teacher is in the middle of a lecture

a student enters the room

the teacher should make eye contact with the student have an area for the student to turn in work, and continue with

the lesson.

Then, teacher can go to the tardy student and tell them whatthey missed or answer any questions from the homework

assigned the night before.


8/14

MOMENTUMThe teacher should make lectures short to allow students

to group together and move around to gain more

knowledge of the content.

------------------------------------------------

The teacher should make sure that these exercises

remain short so students do not get bored.

--------------------------------------------------------

A teacher can keep a timer and assign roles to students to

keep the students moving and on a time deadline.

---------------------------------------------------------------If students are struggling the teacher can reflect on what

they can do to make the lesson more meaningful and

easier to understandfor their students.

SMOOTHNESThe teacher can

have students make hand gestures that willtell the teacher whether the student has a

comment or question concerning the lesson.in group-work the teacher can walk aroundfacilitating and listening to discussions of

other students.intervene or take the group to a differenttrack if the teacher feels it is necessary


10/14

GROUP FOCUS

The teacher can implement this strategy with severaltechniques:

The ability to keep members of the class or grouppaying attention to the task

A. Encourage Accountability: Make students aware that they will begraded for their participation and contributions to the group.

B. The teacher can have a canister of popsicle sticks that have eachstudents name on them. The teacher can pick the popsicle stick

at random to keep students on track and out of their seats withanticipation for question/answer time, board problems, etc.


11/14

C. The students can facilitate a discussion. Once

they have finished a task they can turn to each

other or they could pair up with those who are

already done and compare answers.

Teacher must be well organized, communicate

their expectations to their students, and holdthem responsible for their actions to encourage

motivation and attention.

Classroom Applications

Be aware of what is happening around the classroom.

Intervene before misbehaviours escalate.

Use routines, explanations and smooth transitions to gain theattention of the students.

Keep all students involved through constant supervision andaccountability.

Reduce off task behaviour and boredom by creatingchallenges, extending tasks, providing progress and adding

variety.Be able to attend to more than one event at the same time.

Note: Classroom management is most effective when theseapplications are applied at the beginning of the school year.
