In a perfect world, college students would always be eager, well disciplined, and respectful.
In the real world, some students come to class late, miss deadlines, or fall asleep during lectures. Others monopolize class time, make insulting or abusive comments, and even physically threaten or intimidate other students and professors.
In extreme incidents, there is even the occasional student who poses a dangerous risk to the entire community.
Learn the most effective strategies for assessing and managing these and other classroom challenges with Coping with Seven Disruptive Personality Types in the Classroom: A Magna Publications White Paper. This exclusive white paper—the latest in our new series—explains how to recognize typical styles of troublesome behavior and exactly what to do in response. Based on a well-attended presentation by experienced college mental health counselor Dr. Gerald Amada, this 40-page white paper covers essential strategies for recognizing and containing a difficult situation in the classroom before things spin out of control.
This report takes the bewildering array of unacceptable student behaviors and classifies them into seven easy-to-recognize styles, along with recommended approaches suited to each type’s idiosyncrasies. The recommendations are based on Dr. Amada’s approaches drawn from his 30-year career at the City College of San Francisco. This is a resource you will turn to time and again!
