Session 2 - 19 Nov

Read through the articles today. There were two articles on the tools of assessing the various classroom environment climate. Quite heavy reading stuff as there were lots of statistics and explanations on the tools used for different purposes. I decided to look through the pdf articles and happened to chance on the link to an idea of the 'classroom of the future' @ http://www.21stcenturyschools.com/Designing_21st_Century_Classroom.htm

The learning environment ideally is to be:-

1. inspirational

2. adaptable

3. sustainable

4. fresh

5. safe

6. flexible

7. ICT enabled

8. fun

9. delightful

10. growing

11. natural

The question is how to ensure that the learning environment is physically , socially and psychological safe for the students in the class.
