Pointer and ruler were once necessary tools for ancient teachers, as long as they were teachers in this ancient profession. Since it is said that "teaching is lax and teachers are lazy", the necessary punishment should be the necessary means for teachers to teach. However, some teachers are confused when using rulers. In some places, legislation gives teachers disciplinary power, but teachers say, "You dare to give, but I dare not take".

From the perspective of organizational behavior, pointer and ruler are both passive motivation tools. "Operational conditioning theory" holds that people will correct and adjust their behavior according to certain behavioral consequences. The process of education and management is to decide to "strengthen" or "weaken" the behavior of the managed according to the prediction of the consequences of certain behaviors. Among them, reward is a positive incentive means, while punishment is a preventive measure against negative behavior.

Extended data:

Teacher, so preach and teach. According to the principle of unity of power and responsibility, the necessary rights of criticism, education and punishment must be guaranteed.

However, this does not mean that the ruler can hold high and exercise it at will. When using a ruler, you must pay attention to the boundaries. On the premise of distinguishing right from wrong, respecting students' legal rights and personal dignity, and ensuring teachers' goodwill and initial intention in teaching, the ruler should be used scientifically and effectively to ensure its seriousness and effectiveness. The combination of educational tools such as rewards and punishments can guarantee the healthy growth of students and maintain a good teaching order.
