Proactively Managing Student Behaviour using the TERA Model

10 Mar 2021

Managing student behaviour is an important part of delivering any successful learning event.

While we want to encourage participants to engage with our session, sometimes learning can be undermined by students who engage in unproductive or disruptive behaviour.  Pleasingly, the latest neuroscience shows that by using proactive techniques, we can create the conditions in which people are less likely to engage in unproductive or disruptive behaviour.  

In this brand-new webinar session, Tony will explain how you can take a proactive approach to managing student behaviour. Drawing on the fields of neuroscience and evolutionary psychology, we will explore the TERA model, and how it can be used to promote student engagement while reducing the likelihood of the unproductive behaviours we want to avoid.  

By the end of this session you will be able to:  
  • Identify the question that our brain asks five times a second and how it influences our behaviour. 
  • Recognise the four key elements of psychological safety and how these influence a person’s engagement and disengagement.   
  • Apply practical techniques to meet these elements and create the conditions in which people are less likely to disengage or participate in unproductive behaviour.  
Join us for an engaging webinar that will get you thinking about the many small things you can do (and the things to avoid) to encourage your learners towards a positive, optimistic and engaged attitude.  

Note: This webinar is about proactive behaviour management. We won’t be exploring strategies for addressing unproductive or disruptive behaviour when it occurs. Instead, it is about creating the conditions to avoid those undesirable behaviours in the first place!
