INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
Classroom management is one of the most difficult and complex problems confronting schools
today. This problem concerns inexperienced educators, as well as experienced educators and
school managers. The maintenance of adequate classroom discipline is a prerequisite for the
physical and psychological well-being of learner and the achievement of instructional goals or
outcomes. Harrison (2001) contends that beginner educators are very apprehensive about
discipline of learners who exhibit problem behaviors. Although school managers tend to concur
One of the fundamental problems among educational systems of many countries is related to
classroom discipline and students misbehavior. Disciplinary problems have long being
to control of time and behavior of students as well as of teachers in a classroom setting (Fredrick,
Deitz, Bryceland, & Hummel, 2000). Classroom discipline management involves teachers
encouraging positive social interactions as well as active management in learning and self-
motivation.
Glasser (1985) remarked in his work in the field as school discipline that classroom environment
should motivate students and reduce inappropriate behavior by meeting students basic needs for
belonging, power, fun, and freedom. Glasser (1978) firmly believes that teachers hold the key to
good discipline. He concludes that both teachers and students have important roles to play in
maintaining effective discipline. The following actions are the teacher’s responsibility, they are:
3. Accept no excuses.
7. Be persistent.
Assertive discipline has evolved since the mid 70’s from a rather authoritarian approach to one
that is now more democratic and cooperative approach. A package of behavior management
program was prepared by Lee & Canter(1992).The Cantors believes that a teacher has the right
to determine what is best for his students and to expect compliance. No pupil should prevent
him from teaching, or keep another student from learning. Student compliance is imperative in
creating and maintaining an effective and efficient learning environment. TO accomplish this
goal, teachers must react assertively, as opposed to aggressively or non assertively. There are
3. Making a discipline plan that contains good rules and clear, effective consequences (Blue,
2006).
4. Teaching the discipline plan to learners, Pantesco (2005).
It is important to study how teachers promote classroom discipline or reduce disruptive behavior
of students. Teachers are expected to be able to create a non – disruptive class room
environment (Doyle 1986). According to Goleman (1995), Bar-On (1997) and Mayer, Caruso
and Salovey(1999), one of the factors that influences behavior management in the classroom is
application of emotions, where one deliberately forces one’s feeling to work through applying
them in order to help to guide behavior and thought in the way that promote consequences.
intelligence is the ability to motivate oneself and persist in the face of hopelessness, to control
incentive and delay satisfaction, to organize one’s moods and to empathize (Goleman , 1995).
DISCIPLINE
The word ‘Discipline’ is derived from the root ‘discipulus’ meaning pupil or discipline.
Discipline literally means the process of learning and training, which is for specific ends.
White Head (1965) rightly remarked that “in part of life can not we do without discipline nor
can we do without freedom. Freedom is a condition for effective discipline, and discipline is a
product of freedom”.
CLASSROOM DISCIPLINE
The American Heritage Dictionary (2001) gives the following four definitions as the most
common of meanings for the term: (1) The development of mental faculties (i.e. mental
discipline) by Instruction and exercise (2) Training to act in accordance with established rules (3)
Indoctrination to rule and (4) Training through suffering Development training and ‘mental
discipline’ may or may not be compatible with the freedom and self-determination of the person
undergoing training. However, the third and fourth definition specifically calls for subjugation of
one person to the will of another through suffering or indoctrination and thus denies the
individual his freedom. The several meanings given to the word reflect the varying orientations
and frequent confusion of educational theorists and practitioners in thinking about discipline.
Whatever the variant meanings for the term, discipline, educators most often think of it as the
degree of classroom order, as the technique by which they have established order or as a
euphemism for punishment. Major misunderstanding could be avoided by making clear which of
1. Discipline equals degree of order used. In this sense discipline refers to the degree of
2. Discipline equals management techniques, in this sense, discipline refers to the methods
2005)
3. Discipline equals punishment. In this sense the word is used as a euphemism for
alternatives referred to in the techniques of management. But when used in this way such
punishment strategy can range from minor verbal rebukes to the infliction of corporal
punishment (Goatman.1997).
Following six techniques of classroom discipline have been suggested by ( Pallant, 2007).
1. Punishment
2. Discussion
3. Recognition
4. Aggression
5. Involvement
6. Hinting
means is widely regarded as an important technique for courage active engagement with text.
Therefore only those findings with significant values of less than 0083 will be considered as
significant. There are significant differences between teachers with high emotional intelligence
in all of the six disciplinary strategies used, except, punishment. Referring to the partial eta
square values, emotional intelligence was found to have the most impact of discussion strategy,
explaining 30.1% its variance. This is followed by recognition (29.4% variance explained)
hinting (27.2% variance explained), involvement (12.6% variance explained) and aggression
EMOTIONS
Generally, Emotion refers to a feeling state (including physiological responses and cognitions)
that conveys information about relationships. The term emotion has been derived from the Latin
Emotions are primarily motivating forces, they are processes which arouse sustain and
Emotions are internal events that coordinate many psychological subsystems including
The analysis of emotions often involves describing their composition in regard to other
sense modalities e.g. touch, pace and color (Clynes & de Rivera, 1977).

EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE
EI is the set of abilities that account for how people’s emotional perception and
understanding vary in their accuracy. More formally, EI is define as the ability to perceive
and express emotion, assimilate emotion in thought, understand and reason with emotion
and regulate emotion in the self and others (Mayer & Salovey, 1997).
EI is an array of non-cognitive capabilities, competencies and skills that influence one’s
ability to succeed in coping with environmental demands and pressures (Bar-On, 1997).
The abilities called here emotional intelligence which include self control, zeal and
thinking .It includes the abilities, to accurately perceive emotions, to access and generate
as to promote emotional and intellectual growth (Mayer, Salovey & Caruso, 2004).
Emotional intelligence refers to an ability to recognize the meanings of emotion and their
relationship and to reason and problem-solve on the basis of them. Emotional intelligence
understand the information of those emotions, and manage them (Mayer & Salovey,
1999).
Neither marks in examination nor IQ but emotional intelligence may be the best predictor
EI refers to an ability to recognize the meanings of Emotions and their relationships, and
those emotions, and manage them (Salovey & Mayer, 1990, Salovey &Mayer, 1997).
The term emotional intelligence, then, implies something having to do with the intersection of
emotion and cognition. The domain of emotional intelligence describes several discrete
emotional abilities. These emotional abilities can be divided into four classes or branches, as
shown in the figure below. The most basic skills involve the perception and appraisal of
emotions. As the child grows, he or she discriminates more finely among genuine verses merely
polite smiles and other gradations of expression. The second set of skills involves assimilating
basic emotional experiences. The into mental life, including weighing emotions against one
another and against other sensations and thoughts and allowing emotions to direct attention. The
third level involves understanding and reasoning about emotions. The fourth, highest level, of
emotional intelligence involves the management and regulation of emotion in one self and others
such as knowing how to calm down after feeling angry or being able to alleviate the anxiety of
another person.

The field of Emotional Intelligence (EI) is growing at a rapid rate. EI is being used in a variety of
applications including the workplace, the school system and for personal development. It has
been suggested that EI is important for leadership, performance, scholastic success, life
satisfaction and inter-personal relationships. Over the last 5 years many models of emotional
intelligence have emerged. In an effort to help, clarify this situation, the Encyclopedia of Applied
Psychology (Spielberger, 2004) recently suggested that there are currently three major conceptual
models:
a) The Goleman model (1995), which views this construct as a wide array of competencies
b) The Salovey-Mayer model (1999), which defines this construct as the ability to perceive,
based measure.

identifying other’s emotions are successful in their work as well as in their social
lives.
There are both mental ability models and of emotional intelligence. The mental
ability models focus on emotions themselves and their interactions with thought.
Mixed models of emotional intelligence are substantially different than the mental
ability models. The mixed models treat mental abilities and a variety of other
single entity. The mental ability models operate in a region defined by emotion and
intelligence. By way of contrast, the Mayer & Salovey (1997) model fits within the
emotion and cognitive interactions area. Bar-on’s (1997) theoretical work combines
what may qualify as mental abilities with other characteristics that are considered
separable from mental ability, such as personal independence, self-regard and mood;
this makes it a mixed model .A third view of emotional intelligence was popularized
by Goleman(1995a).He created a model that also was popularized by the five broad
