Another Way: Transforming Schools, Homes & Workplaces Through Simple Guidelines

by James Dixon, Denise Rutledge (Editor), Stan Hughes (Foreword)

Being a substitute teacher is considered one of the most difficult teaching jobs. Yet, Jim Dixon never had a bad day in 12 years. He gives credit for this to the Guidelines for Success he posted the first day he entered a new classroom. What were these guidelines? This is what Jim Dixon shares in Chapter 2 of Another Way.Most adults assume young children are incapable of resolving their problems. However, Dixon discovered otherwise when dealing with his own young boys. Thus, he uses the first chapter to propose a view of how the mind works. From this working hypothesis, he began exploring ways to work with young minds so children develop the desire to succeed and work well with others.His ideas developed further through exposure to the theories of William Glasser, Diane Gossen and Madeline Hunter. Those who are familiar with these thought leaders will discover that Dixon has distilled their ideas into simple-to-understand and practical concepts. He makes their ideas easy to understand and actionable.
