The main idea tested here is using visible monitoring as a deterrent to misbehavior. The phrase "Radar and Be Seen Looking" captures two aspects: radar-like, continuous scanning of the classroom and the act of being visibly attentive. When a teacher moves around the room, makes eye contact, and appears attentive, students perceive that misbehavior is likely to be noticed. That perception raises the perceived cost of misbehaving, which can prevent disruptions before they start.

This fits the approach that emphasizes proactive supervision rather than reacting after the fact. Unlike making expectations clear, which helps students know what’s allowed, or focusing on consequences after misbehavior, or choosing the least disruptive intervention, visible surveillance specifically centers on deterrence through presence. It’s about creating a classroom climate where disciplined behavior is the norm because students feel watched and guided, not because punishment is looming.
