question
The three types of classroom management are authoritarian, permissive, and authoritative. Authoritarian teachers are high on demandingness but low on responsiveness to students' needs and desires. This kind of teacher establishes and maintains order through the use of controlling strategies. The teacher uses force, pressure, competition, punishment, and the threat of punishment to control student behavior. The teacher makes no effort to promote students' autonomy. A permissive teacher encourages the freedom of students and interferes as little as possible. The teacher provides a great deal of affection and warmth, but little if any leadership, makes a few demands on students. This teacher is low in demandingness, but high in responsiveness. An authoritative teacher teacher combines the best of the two other orientations- high demandingness with high responsiveness. The teacher makes developmentally appropriate demands, such as insisting that students work hard, complete their assignments, and comply with rules. At the same time, this teacher gets to know their students and build relationships. They treat their students with respect.
