“After teacher candidates in my class read the first few chapters, they are
always mad: ‘Who does that Kohn guy think he is?’ After the next cou-
ple of chapters: ‘Oh, maybe that Kohn guy knows something.’ After they
finish the book, they’re on the bandwagon and committed to creating
communities in their classrooms.”
—Linda V. Neiman, Milwaukee, WI
“I’m one of those consultants you refer to who, until reading your book,
traveled around spreading the gospel of compliance at the expense of
genuine community.
Beyond Discipline
has helped me to reflect deeply
upon the practices I’ve espoused and to recognize their shortcomings.
Although I think of myself as someone who embraces a constructivist
approach to learning, I’ve never reflected on its application to becoming
a responsible and self-disciplined person. The connection is so obvious,
so simple and at the same time so elegant and powerful.”
—Ron Rubin, Middlebury, VT
“Beyond
Discipline
has been and continues to be one of the most impor-
tant books to me and to the faculty. The philosophy articulated in the
book has transformed the entire culture of our junior high school.”
—Charles Glassman, New York, NY
“Your book has shown me a better, more humane and more productive
method of classroom management—a democratic model based on mu-
tual respect—one that allows kids a significant voice in defining their
classroom community, and even elements of the curriculum. It allows
me to spend more time on instruction and less on managing behavioral
issues. More importantly, it addresses one of the fundamental reasons
schools exist—to raise good, kind people.”
—Kiernan H. Butz, Germantown, WI
“Unlike most ‘classroom management’ texts, your text requires students
to explore their own beliefs about the nature of human beings and the
nature of relationships between adults and youth, and thus addresses a
much deeper and more significant level of professional development.
Your text has been instrumental in helping teacher-trainees come to
grips with their own beliefs
before
they develop classroom management
plans. As a result, I think they are more rational practitioners. On a per-
sonal note, it has had a major impact on the way I parent my two young
children.”
—Wallace K. Pond, Chicago, IL
