Answer to Question 2

Emotional factors strongly influence the ability to create a community of caring and trust. The emotional tone of interventions influences both the likelihood of students complying with them and their attitudes toward the teacher and the class. Loud public reprimands, criticism, and sarcasm reduce students' sense of safety, create resentment, detract from classroom climate, and lead to students finding creative ways to be disruptive without getting caught.
