Dr. Mujibul Hasan Siddiqui

Abstract :

Classroom Meeting Model is based on William Glasser’s Reality Therapy (Classroom meeting strategy). It is the belief of William Glasser that various everyday problems do not develop mental illness and do not require the specific attention of highly trained specialists. Skilled general people of the society, specifically parents and teachers are sufficient capable to solve the majority of human problems. Glasser also feels that the people of the society fail because of their interpersonal relations. Therefore, therapy or assistance must be provided through a social medium such as the group mechanism. Glasser tries to apply his principles to the classroom through the way of the classroom meeting. In classroom meeting, the teacher and the students make nonjudgemental discussions of problems based on personal, behavior or academic to get collective solutions. Assumptions of the Model.
