A Connected School

A Connected School shows you how to create a school climate that fosters achievement, caring, and safety for students, school staff, and the community. This book uses Perceptual Control Theory to help educators interact with students in ways that facilitate students' internal motivation. In A Connected School we understand that we all behave to maintain our internal sense of dynamic balance and that learning is a natural part of this process. We increase achievement by connecting to others, creating a safe and caring environment, and by teaching in ways that foster students' innate desire to learn. The role of A Connected School educator is to help students understand how they can become "disciplined within" and create opportunities to do this in a noncoercive setting.Good, E.
