Marv Marshall

Dr. Marvin Marshall is considered to be the nation's top authority on discipline. Teachers, parents, and professors around the world use his book, "Discipline without Stress, Punishments, or Rewards — How Teachers and Parents Promote Responsibility and Learning."

His articles have been featured on the cover of the Phi Delta Kappan as well as in numerous state and national publications.

He has presented to state and foreign ministries of education, in 42 of the United States, and in several foreign countries.

K-12 rural, urban, and suburban classrooms use his Raise Responsibility System. His simple, noncoercive, amazingly effective approach incorporates ideas of Stephen Covey, W. Edwards Deming, William Glasser, and Abraham Maslow.

His presentations are fast moving, thought provoking, humorous, and practical. He will show how to immediately:

• Reduce discipline referrals, class removals, and suspensions

• Use authority without resorting to punishment
• Raise individual and social responsibility
• Reduce the influence of peer pressure
• Integrate character education
• Improve school climate
