The Solution of Students' Offensive Behavior through Behavioristic Approach

Abstract

Events or cases of student brawls are still a formidable task for an educator, meaning that educators are not only required to improve the quality of education intellectually, the improvement in terms of children's character must also be balanced. Children who are prone to brawls at school turn out to have offensive behavior, they are underestimated by the environment. Even though their offensive behavior is also motivated by the problems of education given to their families from an early age. This is where the role of educators is to be able to improve the offensive behavior of students so that the quality of character education also becomes more qualified. Through a behavioristic approach, it can be done in order to change the order of offensive behavior that exists in students. The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview for educators and for educational counselors on how to handle and approach children who have offensive behavior and can broaden readers’ knowledge. In using the research method, the literature study method is used, which is a method that obtains data and sources from books, journals and others. One of the behavioristic approaches in dealing with offensive behavior in students is the provision of punishment, but the punishment must pay attention to the actual quality of the punishment given. Thus, the educators or educational counselors must be smart and learn as well as possible how to create an educational punishment or reward.
