How do you hold students accountable for their actions?

Here are six key strategies for promoting student responsibility inside or outside the classroom. Create a culture of trust and responsibility. Set high standards and clear expectations. Make students own the learning process.

Help students learn to self-evaluate their work. Connect the classroom to the home. One effective way to hold students accountable and maintain a student-centered classroom is through self-assessments. Self-evaluations help students reflect on their behavior and learning.

They also reinforce their sense of belonging to the classroom. Be positive, non-judgmental, and supportive of students. Because your students are trying to change their behavior, mistakes may occur at first. Remind the student that every action has a consequence and that it was their choice to face punishment.

You can also have a group system where students remember and support each other.
