Generating Academic Urgency through Improved Classroom Management: A Case Study of a University and Urban Charter High School Partnership
Morales, Erik E.
Educational Research Quarterly, v41 n2 p25-42 Dec 2017
This case study documents a university and secondary school partnership designed to improve classroom management and student time on task at an urban charter high school. The initiative utilized the expertise and knowledge of college of education faculty to identify and ameliorate the high school's observed barriers to students' time on task, and unsatisfactory levels of resulting academic success. The most pressing issues identified and addressed were excessive loss of learning time due to ineffective classroom management, and the resulting need to maximize engaged meaningful learning by limiting time wasted in the classroom.
