Respect In The Classroom
Respect in a classroom is the interaction with people that might or might not be different from us. Socioeconomic distinction , religion, beliefs are some of the elements that differ one student from another. Respect is necessary to keep this chain of diverse individuals together. Respect in a classroom involves solidarity, understanding, and partnership. In class, teachers need to respect students' diversity and include them all in one system. This diversity may include students that have disabilities (any type of disability), different cultures, religions, beliefs and so on. Good teachers foster their students by respecting the diverse ways students develope themselves. the lack of respect might result in misunderstanding, inequality and misbehavior in the classroom. Such elements might affect the relationship of a students towards the community in the future, affecting macrosystems. If a child does not develop respect in his/her early years, respect might get harder to be acquired as the student gets older. Students who respect are more likely to tolerate differences, develope a sense of cooperation, socialize better, and value others' opnion then their own.
respect in a classroom is best established when the teacher highlights that every student is special in his/her own way, therefore, every student must be respected. Also, the importance of setting roles in classroom is important. For example, a teacher should define that he/she is the one in charge of the class, and the students should respect that status. Students should also realize that they have the student-role. that is, boundaries must be built in order to identify different roles in a classroom.
Teachers also must adapt his routine to students' needs. This is a case of respect where the teacher compromise his/her welfare in order to help who are more in need.
