Principles of Classroom Management focuses on the teacher's role as a professional decision-maker in creating positive learning environments that help influence students to behave productively and strive for academic success, rather than focusing on rewards and punishments.

The 8th Edition incorporates updated research, examples, and real-world classroom cases throughout the text.

Increased emphasis is placed on relationship building, culturally relevant pedagogy, teacher self-care strategies, and universal design for learning.

Both foundational and belief-based strategies are presented as classroom intervention strategies for working with students who exhibit chronic behavior problems.
