This Erasmus+ training course provides you with a comprehensive understanding of classroom management and insights into your own management style. By the end of the course, you will be equipped to make meaningful improvements in your teaching practices. You’ll have the opportunity to practice English and connect with colleagues across Europe.

Course Objectives

To understand and adapt to the changes in the school environment

To create a positive and supportive classroom climate

To introduce a range of digital tools that can improve teaching practices

To promote teacher well-being and discuss practical strategies to prevent burnout

To develop teamwork skills by working in multinational groups

This course has been designed especially for primary, and secondary teachers of different subjects, but it could also be helpful for teachers from vocational schools, teacher trainers, and head teachers. The course aims at depicting significant challenges of classroom management nowadays and setting out practical ways of managing the classroom by presenting alternatives to traditional approaches.

Are today’s students different from previous generations? Are teaching and classroom management more difficult than a few decades ago? If yes, in what way and for what reason(s)? If not, why do so many teachers find managing the classroom harder than before and experience so much stress during the school year? Why do so many students dislike or even hate school? Why is it so hard to motivate and gain students’ attention for learning purposes? Are these only present-day problems, or did they exist even when our parents and grandparents were students? 

We will try to answer these and many other impromptu questions which might occur during discussions about classroom management theories and strategies. In this course, participants will learn practical ways to handle changes in the school environment, create a positive classroom atmosphere, and increase student engagement and motivation. The course will also cover useful classroom management techniques for the digital age. Moreover, it will provide helpful tips on how teachers can reduce stress and take care of their well-being.
