Anita Kaderják

T-Tudok Center for Knowledge Management and Educational Research

In this presentation, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of how students and teachers experienced and evaluated the Positive Discipline program based on our research findings. We gathered extensive data on students' perceptions, where they felt the program’s impact, and the changes they observed in their teachers. Similarly, we explored teachers’ perspectives on their own experiences, what they found effective or challenging, and the progress they noticed in their students. The presentation will showcase both quantitative results and qualitative insights from interviews.
