Yet is it also controversial.  \nDifferent teachers have very different  \nstyles, values and priorities.  \nGreat Teaching Toolkit Evidence Review | 27  \nSummary of Dimension 3  \n3.1 Managing time and resources efficiently in the classroom to maximise productivity and minimise wasted time (e.g., starts, transitions); giving clear instructions so students understand what they should be doing; using (and explicitly teaching) routines to make transitions smooth  \n3.2 Ensuring that rules, expectations and consequences for behaviour are explicit, clear and consistently applied  \n3.3 Preventing, anticipating and responding to potentially disruptive incidents; reinforcing positive student behaviours; signalling awareness of what is happening in the classroom and responding appropriately  \nOne of the most persistent findings of the ‘process-product’ classroom observation tradition is the importance of ‘opportunity to learn’ and ‘time on task’(Creemers et al., 2013; Muijs et al., 2014) . No teacher will be surprised to learn that being presented with curriculum content in an accessible format and having time to engage with it are found to be necessary for learning to take place. Managing lessons so that time is used productively is a core teaching skill. Specific practices, such as giving clear instructions and establishing routines and rules, support this. Managing student behaviour comes under this heading too: dealing with disruption, but, crucially, preventing it happening in the first place.  \nClassroom management and efficiency are featured in all the frameworks for teaching quality we have seen, but different frameworks seem to cut this dimension in different ways. We have gone with three strands, though each comprises a collection of techniques, practices and principles: (1) using time efficiently,(2) establishing clear rules, and (3) managing disruption.  \nWe also note that how these phenomena are manifested in a particular classroom depends on a lot more than just the skill and behaviours of the teacher: characteristics of the students and the wider school environment/ policies, for example, are both important factors (Bennett, 2017) . The same teacher seen teaching a difficult topic to a class containing individuals with persistently challenging behaviours in a school where the rules are unclear or inconsistently applied, might look very different with a fun topic, a class full of biddable students and in a school with strong behaviour support.  \nNevertheless, our purpose is not to evaluate teachers but to help them improve. If there are skills that teachers can learn to improve the efficiency, stability and focus of their classrooms, then those skills should be captured in our model so that we can give teachers good feedback about their current status, likely areas and directions for high-leverage improvement effort, and ongoing progress and growth.  \nGreat Teaching Toolkit Evidence Review | 28  \nElements of Dimension 3  \n1  \n2  \n3  \nThe first element of this dimension relates to the efficient use of time and resources. Great teachers plan activities and resources so that everything works smoothly. Settling down time at the start of a lesson or after a transition is minimised – students get started on meaningful work straight away and work right up to the end of the lesson. Part of this is about giving students clear and simple instructions so they know exactly what they should be doing. Routines can also be an element of great teaching – explicitly teaching students a pattern of behaviour that will be used regularly.  \nThe second component is about the consistent and fair application of rules. Rules and expectations should be clearly understood and ac","cbCaiuBcWZzYBfBJ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiuBcWZzYBfBJ","pdf",263603,"English","# Summary of Dimension 3\n## Managing time and resources efficiently\n## Ensuring explicit rules, expectations and consequences\n## Preventing and responding to disruptive incidents\n# Elements of Dimension 3\n## Efficient use of time and resources\n## Consistent and fair application of rules\n## Preventing and responding to disruption\n# Evidence for Dimension 3","[{\"question\":\"What does Dimension 3 focus on in the classroom?\",\"answer\":\"Dimension 3 focuses on classroom management and efficiency: using time and resources productively, applying clear rules consistently, and preventing or responding to disruption to maximise learning time.\"},{\"question\":\"How should teachers maximise opportunity to learn and time on task?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers should manage lessons so time is used productively, give clear instructions, establish routines for smooth transitions, and minimise settling-down time so students begin meaningful work quickly.\"},{\"question\":\"How should teachers handle student behaviour and disruption?\",\"answer\":\"Teachers should ensure rules and expectations are explicit and applied consistently, anticipate disruption using antecedent strategies and teacher withitness, reinforce positive behaviour, and respond firmly and appropriately when disorder occurs.\"}]","Maximising opportunity to learn - Summary of Dimension 3 - Classroom management and efficiency | PDF"]
