Educational Psychology / Unit 11   EDP 1016 short lesson, about 20 seconds

Procedures and Rules

Captions available

The idea

Procedures are conventions for recurring tasks, with more than one acceptable way; rules are standards of personal responsibility, few, positively stated and general enough to cover many behaviors.

In practice

How papers are handed in is a procedure; "respect others' property" is a rule.

Where people slip

The case for student input is stronger for rules than for procedures.
