  • Students Parliament 6 September 2001 Afternoon Session — Legislative Council Chamber
    STUDENTS PARLIAMENT 6 SEPTEMBER 2001 AFTERNOON SESSION — LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL CHAMBER The ACTING PRESIDENT (Hon. A. P. Olexander) took the chair at 12.50 p.m. The ACTING PRESIDENT — Good afternoon. I am Andrew Olexander, a member for Silvan Province, and a member of this chamber. I welcome you all here to the resumption of the Students Parliament and to the Legislative Council. You may have heard earlier in the day that the Legislative Assembly, which is across the corridor and is decorated in green, is the people’s house. While the Legislative Council is elected on a very similar basis to the Legislative Assembly, its role in our democratic process is as a house of review. To achieve that, its members take great care with every piece of legislation that comes to us from the lower house. We analyse it in detail and bring further information and analysis to bear on it. You may have heard quoted what Lord Acton said last century. He said, ‘Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely’. That is a very true sentiment, and the whole idea of having a Legislative Council to review the activities of the house of government is so that no chamber has absolute power. The role and traditions of the Legislative Council are very important in our democratic system. Each student here today is represented by three members of Parliament: one is a person from the lower house, and two members represent each and every one of you in this, the upper house. If you do the maths you will see that every upper house electorate has two members and encompasses four lower house seats, so each province is a large electorate.

This document is copyrighted material. Under copyright law, no part of this document may be reproduced without the expressed permission of the author. iii Abstract This grounded theory study explored the behavior management strategies of 24 middle school teachers who served diverse student populations at 12 schools in Dimapur and Kohima, Nagaland in India. The researcher employed a qualitative interview and data gathering process, and transcribed and analyzed data through typological coding, question by question. This process led to the development of a grounded theory on effective behavior management strategies that included: (1) teacher-student relationships, (2) teacher leadership, (3) effective instruction, (4) organizational culture, (5) parental involvement, and (6) modeling behaviors. The interpretive analysis of data revealed that teachers were most concerned about the cumulative effects of disruption caused by persistent, but individually trivial incidents of misbehavior.
