Reconceptualizing Classroom Management in India: A Multi-Level Meta-Analytic Synthesis of Relational, Behavioral, and Technological Dimensions

This paper outlines a comprehensive framework for a meta-analysis research paper on classroom management in Indian secondary schools, focusing on student behaviour, teacher-student relationships, and technology integration. It details a theoretical foundation using Ecological Systems, Self-Determination, and Social Learning Theories, and proposes a rigorous multi-level meta-analytic methodology following PRISMA guidelines. The paper would synthesise findings from open-access Q1 journals (Scopus/Web of Science) and Taylor & Francis, examining the effectiveness of various strategies, their cultural adaptation, and the challenges of technology integration amidst India's digital divide. The final synthesis would provide evidence-based recommendations for educators and policymakers, while identifying research gaps and future directions.
