A high school student acts bored in class and the teacher decides she is a bad student. This teacher discusses the student with other teachers who then treat that student as if she were a bad student. This describes the process of .

Labeling.

Explanation:

As the exercise suggests, the process of labeling involves classifying a student with a label, usually due to their ability, potential, attitude or behaviour. In this case, the student who acts bored (who could act like this because the class itself is boring, not because he is a bad student) is being labeled as a bad student by a teacher. Even though in this case this process ends up being negative, it could happen the other way round: he could participate a lot, have good grades and then he would be classified as a good student.
