    "This book focuses on the issue of classroom behaviour, a topic which has stirred up heated debates among educational committees the world over. Recent episodes of violence in schools and colleges have only added fuel to the fire, and questions are being raised upon the changing sociology of students and teachers, and their low levels of tolerance.

    The book explores this issue in a comprehensive manner, and gives various strategies and tips to inculcate a sense of positive classroom behaviour. Designed to meet the needs of both teachers and students, it provides the reader highly useful pointers to bridge communication gaps between teachers and educators, foster effective and enriching learning experiences and address educational concerns. Highly insightful and enlightening, it is hoped that the book would be resourceful for all." (jacket)
