Abstract

Teachers in Brazil, Chile and Mexico report having high percentages of students with behavioural problems in their classes. Especially in Brazil, teachers report spending large amounts of time keeping order in the classroom. Besides potentially significantly reducing instructional time and students’ opportunities to lean, student misbehaviour can also influence attracting and retaining teachers. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate factors associated with time that lower secondary teachers report spending keeping order in the classroom and factors associated with these teachers’ reports of student behavioural problems in their class. It is based on in-depth analyses from the OECD Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS 2013) data from Brazil, Chile and Mexico. Some of the major findings show that aspects of initial teacher education, professional development and teacher professional collaboration are associated with the time that lower secondary teachers report spending keeping order in the classroom, while participation among stakeholders in schools is negatively associated with student behavioural problems in the classroom. Au Brésil, au Chili et au Mexique, les enseignants font état d’importants pourcentages d’élèves ayant des problèmes de comportement dans leurs classes. Au Brésil plus particulièrement, les enseignants indiquent consacrer beaucoup de temps au maintien de l’ordre en classe. En plus de réduire potentiellement de façon significative le temps d’instruction et les opportunités d’apprentissage, les problèmes de comportement des élèves peuvent également avoir une incidence sur l’attrait de la profession d’enseignant et le maintien des enseignants déjà en poste. Cet article document entend donc étudier les facteurs associés au temps que les enseignants du premier cycle du secondaire indiquent consacrer au maintien de l’ordre en classe et les facteurs associés aux déclarations que font ces enseignants de comportements perturbateurs d’élèves dans leurs classes. Il se fonde sur des analyses approfondies des données de l’Enquête internationale de l’OCDE sur l’enseignement et l’apprentissage (TALIS 2013) pour le Brésil, le Chili et le Mexique. Parmi les principaux résultats, il apparaît que certains aspects de la formation initiale des enseignants, de leur formation continue et de leur collaboration professionnelle entre pairs présentent un lien avec le temps que les enseignants du premier cycle du secondaire indiquent consacrer au maintien de l’ordre en classe, tandis que la participation des différents acteurs de l’établissement présente une relation négative avec les problèmes de comportement des élèves en classe.
