Handling problem students should be something that is done from the start of an issue, don't let it built to a point that it consumes the entire class

One of the things that I learned is to set expectations for the students.  This way the student will know what the class involves.  Being able to identify student's needs and personalities early can help you keep the entire class on track,  I love the micro-summary at the end of class idea.

Helping students understand that there are policies in place in the classroom gives them the tools that they need to be successful not only in school  but in preparing for their career endeavors.  Structure allows everyone to be proactive and build positive relationships.
