those of someone else.

skills explicitly needed by the students. - ANSWER: Structure, framework and class rules teach the
students to stay within boundaries which fosters the development of self management and self
esteem.

information and behaviors needed for healthy development. Strict structure and rules are not a main
focus in this approach, as it manages the class but doesn't develop the students' learning.
