Day 3: A Systematic Approach to Classroom Discipline

3-stage system for classroom discipline1. Discipline Through Prevention

2. Discipline Through Behavior Control3. Discipline Through Punishment

By: Ahmed Eric Ali - ESP Teacher, HIPF

Day 3: Teaching for Understanding

Institutional transition to the learning paradigm

Emphasis on Delivery of ContentEmphasis on Learning with Understanding

By: Eng. Sanjay Rawat - Education Coordinator, HIPF

Knowing vs. UnderstandingKnowing is just to memorize the facts but understanding means the integration of information to make a

concept. Knowing the facts and doing well on tests of knowledge does not mean we understand. If you learn byknowing, that means you know the facts but if you learn by understanding, that means you understand the

meanings of the facts. When you understand something you not only know if that something is true or false butyou also know why it is true or false. If you understand you can judge yourself and know when and when not to

use which you know.
