It has become increasingly important for teachers to know that the effects of punishment
are frequently undesirable.
1. For one, the threatening aspects of punishment may produce emotional tension in
the pupil who may actually learn to hate the punisher because of the fear of
punishment
2. The pupil may acquire many undesirable behaviors to avoid being punished. He
may cheat, lie, and become anxious.
3. The teacher needs to be aware that punishment has limited usefulness as a control
technique
• It has real disadvantages in the terms of the total learning of the child
• Teachers need to note that if their interaction with pupils is largely
characterized by punitive relationship, they are likely to be ineffective in
promoting a wide range of desirable behavior.
