The basis of the guidance approach stems from the belief that human nature has the potential for good.It holds that the adult should guide the child,rather than discipline the child,to develop inner strength needed to make ethical and intelligent decisions.
Assertive discipline clearly establishes the role of the student and authority of the teacher,using a system of rewards and punishments.
For the children,it does not allow for individual differences or circumstances,setting up winners and losers.Public identification of "culprits" demoralizes and humiliates.For the teacher,they are unable to use professional judgment or accommodate for learner differences.This method of discipline places the teacher and learner at odds.
Critics of assertive discipline have argued that it has negative implications for children and teachers.In addition,it has been criticized for its failure to allow for individual circumstances.Children who might make innocent mistakes would suffer humiliation.Additionally,it was believed that students can grow immune to the demands of the discipline and become stigmatized as "out-groups" within the school setting.
