description |
The purpose of this study was to investigate classroom management and
discipline problems that Literature teachers have faced, and to reveal the underlying
reasons and possible solutions of these problems by considering the views of teachers
and administrators. This study was designed as a qualitative study. Subjects of this
study consisted of 5 school administrators and 5 teachers. Two different, but parallel,
semi-structured interview schedules were used for data collection. Data was analyzed
through the use of the content analysis method. As a result of this analysis, the
problems associated with classroom management were grouped under the following
themes; lack of motivation, rule and routines breaking, boring literature
texts/materials, ineffective time management, classroom environment, language
barrier and lack of classroom interaction. On the other side, participants relate these
problems with the following reasons; nature and status of the subject in the
curriculum, classroom environment, crowded classroom and boring literature
texts/materials, lack of rules, teachers’ inefficiency in classroom management and
students’ attitudes. Finally, the following solutions were suggested to overcome
disciplines and classroom management problems; increasing teachers’ pedagogical
and subject area knowledge, re-framing the nature of literature course/subject in the
curriculum, using a reward system that facilitates motivation, establishing classroom
rules, giving punishment, ignoring, investigating the reasons of the problem,
encouraging students’ creativity to incorporate the texts into their daily lives to make it
interesting, using the influence of the English Language Society to promote Literature
to the students in the school and collecting feedback from students about the subject
and adhering to their needs. |
