Experiential Discipline: Informing and Reforming Discipline in Secondary Schools in Alberta
-
- Author(s) / Creator(s)

Effective school discipline is a complex and evolving issue in modern education. As classroom dynamics, school cultures, and student populations change, disciplinary practices must also change in order to remain effective. John Dewey’s philosophy of education as both experiential and social provides a theoretical framework for future disciplinary policies that are responsive, rather than reactive. Using Deweyan theories and evaluating the history of discipline in the North American school context, this qualitative study will identify issues within modern discipline policies and suggest a path forward using experiential learning as a model of effective school discipline.
