Discipline is an attitude of obedience to the rules that exist in educational institutions. The rules that have been made are often violated. These violations must be a matter of concern to change and foster a culture of discipline. Several factors can be influential in growing and creating a work environment that has a disciplined work culture. This factor can be something that provides a deterrent effect (punishment) or something that provides happiness (reward).
