ResumoIf education means taming, says Antoine de Saint-Exupéry in The Little Prince, i.e. humanization, newcomers(Gert Biesta) in humanity, then the rules are a sign that humanity. 120 teachers from the secondary schools teaching different subjects and coming half from urban areas and half from rural areas having a minimum of six years teaching experience were asked about which are the rules they are using in their classrooms, about which are the most effective punishments and rewards. The bibliographic study methods; the observation method; the enquiry method (questionnaire, discussion, enquiry, etc.); the pedagogical experiment method; the statistical-mathematical method; the graphical method. The answers were grouped into three categories, and teachers were divided at random into three groups, each group analyzing the responses to one of the three categories. Finally, after group discussions, the author obtained three lists, one with rules, one with punishments considered to be the most effective and the third containing the most used rewards.
