Book review: Discipline with dignity
After the menace of ragging in educational institutes, the book 'Discipline by Dignity: New challenges, New Solution' is for teachers for strategies to prevent unruly behavior of students. Enlightening the innovative and calm way for discipline.

IN THE times when ragging is rampant despite the stringent laws and rules being in place now, the book 'Discipline by Dignity: New challenges, New Solution' is a welcome arrival for teachers to implement strategies to prevent unruly behaviour of students in their institutions and classrooms.

The author, RL Cruwin, holds that the causes of indiscipline among students are: boredom, powerlessness, unclear limits and requiring students to earn discipline rather than being given to them.


Furthermore, the author advocates the preventive measures for indiscipline and suggests the following measures.

1) Let students know what the institution expects from them and the what they expect from the institution.
 
2) Listen to what students are thinking and feeling.
 
3) Use humour and offer choices.
 
4) Be responsible for yourself as a teacher and allow students be responsible for themselves
 
5) Use a variety of ways for communicating with students.
 
According to the book, discipline works best when it is integrated with effective teaching. It has also been suggested that the teacher must adopt 3C's strategy of Connection-Competence- Control through care and concern to prevent indiscipline and promote good behaviour.


The current edition (2008), of the book is available with the lead book sellers and is a must for all educational institutions and teachers.
