Strengths: Motivate Possible Consequences Determine Solutions Understand Their Needs Avoid Promoting Rebellion

This document discusses the strengths and weaknesses of a theory for classroom discipline. The strengths include motivating students to be good people, helping students understand consequences and find their own solutions, and avoiding rebellion. Weaknesses are that it can be difficult for teachers to help satisfy students' needs for control, properly react to inappropriate behavior, and avoid encouraging excuses. Classroom meetings may also take up more time than desired. The rationale is that the theory could help students control behaviors to meet needs effectively and build respect and trust between teachers and students.
