I believe what we are being ask here to do is present our views on why positive classroom rules increase student achievement. For one thing that has ben found to be the case in Dr. Marzano's research and others as well. From experience I can say I have seen the same and have drawn the same conclusion in classes where a positive learning environment has been established. This has been prove based on the success students have had on end of course assessments in the State of Indiana. It only makes sense, if students are engaged becase that is what is expected they will have a focus on learning and again that simply follows research provided in the text, personal experience, and other writings found on the subject.
