This article is based on the educational experiences of Joanne Lipman. She talks about her orchestra conductor who was extremely strict on his students. She then goes on to talk about how many doctors, lawyers, and many others in more high end fields came from this strict way of teaching. In her article she talks about 8 principles in which make this method of teaching affective. Lipman feels very strong that this method of teaching is affective in making students learn better and become successful adults.
In some ways I do agree with Joanne Lipman in her article. We need to put a little more discipline into the classroom. Some kids run over there teachers and just are really bad behaved. But I don't think teachers should call students names or embarrass them in front of their peers. Students can get easily discouraged when embarrassed, but children with too much praise can get too relaxed with their school work or with their behavior. I think in school systems today there needs to be an equal balance of discipline and fun.
