Answer to Question 1

In addition to his own self-evaluation, it would be useful to know what standards (i.e., display rules) Robbie is using to evaluate his performance. The work of Schunk and Zimmerman can be applied to helping Robbie develop more self-regulation. More specifically, the teacher may help Robbie self-regulate by asking him to observe others and imitate their approach. Robbie's teacher should model a strategy he can use to regulate his emotions when he gets frustrted. She can ask him to demonstrate what he will do next time rather than throwing his pencil and tearing his paper.
