Learning Episode #2 Preparing the Learning Environment: An

Overview
Intended Learning Outcomes:

1. Revisit the concept of learning environment in the context of the
current teaching and learning situation.
Overview of the Learning Environment

A learning environment, traditionally called the classroom, is a space in
a school that supports student learning. It is a self-contained area where
teacher teaches and children learn. In the classroom are chairs or tables for
students and a front table for the teacher. This is a traditional face-to-face
classroom. Most often the students should face the teacher as the chairs are
arranged that way. But as teaching deliveries changed to enhance learning,
modification in the seating arrangement evolved and more opportunity for
the learners to move about for cooperative learning was addressed.
A conducive learning environment should have the following characteristics:

1. Flexibility - There is opportunity to have small groups, movable walls.
2. Openness - Learning corners/areas which could be shared.
3. Access to resources - Audio-visual materials are ready and open for
use.
4. Physical classroom - Space is clean and safe.
5. Psychological atmosphere - It is friendly and accommodating.
The classroom climate nurtures the intellectual, physical, social and

emotional development of the students.
Here are some specific strategies for developing the optimal classroom
climate. You may consider the seen!
1. Learning environment addresses both physical and psychological
needs of the students for security and order, love and belonging,
personal power and competence, freedom and fun.
2. Create a sense of order. For example, teacher should teach students
how to
● enter the classroom and become immediately engaged in the
activity;
● distribute and collect materials;
AY 2023-2024
● find out about missed assignments due to absence and how to

make up for them;
● get the teacher's attention without disrupting the class and
● arrange desks, tables quickly and quietly for various purposes.
3. Greet learners as they enter your face-to-face or on-line classroom.
4. In a healthy and conducive learning environment, everybody belongs
and knows each other.
5. Encourage class building activities like and team activities. 6. In a
conducive learning environment, success whether small or big is
recognized and celebrated.
Both approaches, either the traditional face-to-face or online, lead to

positive results but in different ways, so usually in practice both approaches
are combined.

NOTICE
Learning Environment 1:
1. What have you noticed of the display in the class bulletin board? What
message or theme does it convey?
= The display in the class bulletin board is all about announcements,

memo/schedules, or student accomplishment. The message its
conveys are class rules and upcoming events.
2. What makes it attractive to the learners?
=It’s the colorful designs.
3. Does it help in the learning process? How?

=Yes, because through posting information the students will
encourage to read and comprehend.
Learning Environment 2:
1. If the teacher is using a distance of learning through the modules,
where is most likely the learning space of the students?
=Their learning space is most likely in the bedroom.
2. Can you describe it?
=In the bedroom because they are not fond of going out especially if
the have their own room ,they would likely to stay the wholeday ro
accomplish their modules ,they would like to stay in their comfort
zones.
3. How can you as a teacher help to make such an environment

conducive for learning?
AY 2023-2024
=A bedroom is conducive for learning when it is well lighted, ventilated

and they can freely move or do whatever they want to do.
The examples above, describe two contrasting situations. The first

shows that the learners are in the same room or space while in the second,
the learners may be in different learning spaces like homes, study hubs or in
extreme cases parks or under the trees.
As a teacher, in which of the two situations would you prefer to

manage learning? Choose between Learning Environment 1 or Learning
Environment 2. Explain your choice: Why?
Learning Environment 1
As a future teacher I prefer Learning Environment 1 so that i can give
students the proper assesment on how they are responding through our
lessons. It is also better for children to see their teachers while teaching.
Also, it becomes easier to give lessons to students and we can easily
answer their questions regarding to the topic.
AY 2023-2024
Reflect
In not less than 300 words, write an essay on the topic: My Conducive
Learning Environment.
The environment has a role to play in an individual's learning.

Having a safe and distraction-free environment has a huge impact on
students' ability to fully learn and understand their lesson. The classroom is
one of the places that we can consider as an important place to store a
very valuable heritage that will never be stolen from us but will be a way
for us to share it with other people. The place where a student's vision
begins to form about the path to be taken towards the future and the
future consequences. It is a great challenge for a teacher to create a very
pleasant classroom environment that will be the home of each student in
the daily struggle to build each student's dreams.
Still fresh in my memories when I was studying in high school, our

school was clean, safe and away from trouble which is what a student
needs to achieve excellence and excell in class.
You will also notice the comfortable seats, interesting designs and proper
rules that are enforced inside the class. It is also associated with the
responsibility of us students to maintain cleanliness and order within the
class because we are the users of the classroom. As a student, it is only
appropriate that the learning environment be kept pleasant, orderly and
clean to encourage every student to enter and continue learning which is
the key to achieving success in the future. As a teacher, you carry your
students on your shoulders because it is your responsibility to share your
knowledge with them, to make sure they get the lesson you are teaching.
It is a big challenge for the teacher to maintain a pleasant learning

environment for a student because it will cause positive and negative
effects that are the basis of whether you have been an effective teacher.
As a practicing teacher, I can say that maintaining order inside and outside
the school is important to ensure the quality of education we provide to
students. In other words, the teacher and the classroom environment
should not be left aside. This should be the focus of attention so that we
can feel the balanced issue regarding learning and the student. May be this
issue is only taken care of but as a whole there is a big impact that can be
made to See something that contributes to the learning process.
