Delpit The Culture of Power

 this is a connection and reflection

     In Delpit, she explains the culture of power controls the synergy of a classroom in education. whatever is the status quo students must follow. it shows that those that are not aware of the power are met with disciplinary consequences based  upon the teacher's assumption and tone. If students do not know the rules of a classroom, and happens to break a rule, the student may react in way of hurt or anger. It is the educators job to set rules and expectations that students can easily met, if the teacher is focused on trying to assert dominance in the classroom, some students may have trouble adhering to them and their rules, this should give teachers a better solution to handle situations as such. 

Think about a time you broke a rule in school, if it was a rule you did not know was in place how did you and the teacher react to your situation. It is important that students are mindful of the rules and that they clearly understand what is being asked of them to do and not to do.
