After nearly 40 years on the podium, Mr. Do Trung Lai (retired), former math teacher at Tan Chau High School (Tan Chau Town, An Giang), said that at school age, students cannot avoid impulsiveness and conflicts... When students violate discipline, the first thing a teacher needs to do is talk, confide, find out why they made mistakes, why the conflicts reached the point of fighting... The difficulty for a teacher is understanding the thoughts and feelings of students. If you want to teach good students, you have to understand them. Because not every student has a full set of parents, is born and raised in a family with enough material things and lots of love.
School is the second home of students, so disciplinary measures need to aim at human values and achieve educational goals.
But clearly, according to Mr. Lai, suspending students from school and forcing them not to go to school is not a good way. Because at home, with no one to supervise or remind them, where will they go and what will they do during that time? Will there be any bad friends who entice or entice them? Will they continue to make the same mistakes?
According to Mr. Do Trung Lai, the reasonable way to discipline is to still let students go to school, even though they are not allowed to go to class with their friends, students who violate the rules are still allowed to go to the library and the self-study room. They can read books, write down their thoughts and feelings, why they made mistakes, what their thoughts and wishes are. Or teachers can let them read good books, let them write down the lessons they learned from them; and talk to them more.
According to Mr. Lai, the education sector is currently building happy schools, paying attention to students’ emotions. The above loving discipline can help students not feel inferior and self-conscious, and gradually help them improve.
Master Pham Thanh Tuan, a civics teacher at Dien Hong Secondary and High School (District 10, Ho Chi Minh City), a member of the civics council of the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Education and Training, said that legally, suspending students for a certain period of time is not wrong, according to the circular of the Ministry of Education and Training. However, that is in theory; in terms of emotion, if students do not go to school for 1 week, 2 weeks or longer, they will lose knowledge. Not to mention, their parents are also busy working outside, no one to take care of them, and if they do not go to school, who knows, during this time they might be lured into and fall into social evils...
Reading books, writing reviews or participating in community service activities... are positive disciplinary solutions that many schools are aiming for.
Master Le Van Nam, teacher at Tran Van Giau High School (Binh Thanh District, Ho Chi Minh City), believes that the learning environment is where students develop knowledge, skills and values in life. In this process, disciplining students to ensure school regulations is very important, and compliance with discipline is indispensable, but it needs to be implemented in a consistent, humane way and achieve educational goals. One of the goals of discipline is to help students understand and change their behavior.
"Instead of letting students stay home from school, teachers, schools, and parents should talk to them. The community needs to give them the opportunity to talk about the situation and the reasons why they have committed violent and disruptive acts... Then, adults should give them advice so they can understand the consequences of their actions and what they can do to change for the better," shared Master Le Van Nam.
