THE TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM SETTING

A traditional classroom setting is a physical classroom environment in which a teacher

instructs a group of students in person. This type of setting is often associated with formal
education in K-12 schools, colleges, and universities.

In a traditional classroom, students sit at desks or tables arranged in rows facing the teacher
at the front of the room. The teacher delivers instruction using a variety of methods, including
lectures, discussions, group work, and activities. The teacher may also use visual aids, such as
whiteboards, blackboards, projectors, and textbooks.

In this setting, students interact with the teacher and their classmates face-to-face, and they
have opportunities to ask questions, participate in discussions, and receive immediate feedback

from the teacher. Traditional classrooms also often have rules and procedures in place to maintain
order and ensure that students can focus on their learning.

Overall, traditional classroom settings provide a structured and familiar learning

environment for students and teachers alike. However, this approach has some limitations, such
as limited access to technology and less flexibility in terms of scheduling and individualized
instruction.

Teacher-centric, also known as teacher-centered or teacher-led, refers to a teaching

approach in which the teacher is the primary focus of the learning experience. In this approach,
the teacher is the central authority figure who directs the learning process and students are
expected to follow the teacher's lead.

Examples of teacher-centric instruction might include:

Lecture-based teaching: The teacher delivers a lecture to the class, providing information and
knowledge on a specific topic. The students are expected to listen and take notes, and may have
opportunities to ask questions at the end of the lecture.

Direct instruction: The teacher explicitly teaches students specific concepts, skills or strategies
through structured lessons, often with a focus on rote memorization or repetition.

Drill and practice: Students are given a series of repetitive tasks or exercises to reinforce
knowledge or skills, with the teacher providing feedback and corrections as needed.

Socratic method: The teacher leads a discussion by asking questions to elicit critical thinking and
help students develop their own conclusions.

While teacher-centric approaches can be effective for providing clear guidance and
structure for learning, they may not be as effective at promoting independent thinking and student-
centered learning. Therefore, it's important for teachers to balance their approach with student-
centered instruction, which encourages students to take ownership of their learning and become
active participants in the learning process.

There are a few reasons why some traditional classroom settings do not support the use of
technology:

Lack of Resources: Some schools or classrooms may not have access to the necessary technology
or equipment, such as computers or projectors, due to financial constraints.

Teacher Experience: Teachers may not have experience or training in integrating technology into
their lessons, which can make it difficult for them to effectively use technology in the classroom.

Distractions: The use of technology can be distracting to students and can detract from the focus
of the lesson. Students may be more interested in using technology for personal reasons, such as
checking social media or playing games, rather than engaging in the lesson.

Pedagogical Approach: Some educators may believe that technology can hinder the learning
process and that traditional teaching methods, such as lectures and textbooks, are more effective.

Digital Divide: Students who do not have access to technology outside of the classroom may feel
at a disadvantage in a technology-focused classroom, leading to unequal learning opportunities.

It is important to note that while traditional classroom settings may not always support the
use of technology, there are many benefits to incorporating technology into education, including
increased engagement, access to a wider range of learning resources, and opportunities for
personalized learning. As technology continues to evolve, it is likely that its role in education will
continue to be redefined and expanded.

Some of the key features of a 21st century classroom include:

Technology Integration: The use of technology is a key aspect of a 21st century classroom.
Students have access to digital devices, such as laptops, tablets, and interactive whiteboards, and
use a variety of software and applications to engage with course content and collaborate with peers.

Collaborative Learning: The 21st century classroom emphasizes collaboration and teamwork.
Students work together on projects and assignments, sharing ideas and learning from each other.

Flexibility: The classroom is designed to be flexible and adaptable to different learning styles and
needs. Students have the ability to work independently or in small groups, and can move around
the classroom as needed to work in different areas.

Personalized Learning: The 21st century classroom recognizes that every student is unique and
learns differently. Teachers use technology to provide personalized learning experiences that meet
the individual needs of each student.

Project-Based Learning: The classroom emphasizes project-based learning, where students work
on real-world projects that are relevant to their lives and interests. This approach encourages
critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity.

Global Perspective: The 21st century classroom is designed to help students develop a global
perspective. Students learn about different cultures and ways of life, and use technology to
communicate with students in other parts of the world.

Overall, the 21st century classroom is designed to provide students with the skills and
knowledge they need to succeed in a rapidly changing world. By integrating technology,
collaboration, and personalized learning, the classroom prepares students for the challenges and

"Okay Class, we are about to move on to our next topic and I am excited to introduce our
next presenter, Teacher Christian Morales. He will be speaking about A Conducive Physical
Learning Environment. His insights are sure to provide valuable knowledge and spark important
discussions.

Learning takes place not just in the classroom but also in different spaces and areas in life.
However, the majority of the things that one learns in life happen in those four walls. This is
especially true when building learning foundations in children.

Thus, having a conducive learning environment that encourages little people to enjoy the
whole process of knowing new things is important. Schools are considered to be a student’s second
home as they spend a huge chunk of their daily life in it.

A conducive learning environment goes beyond having the right school furniture supplies
and is actually composed of several important factors. These factors, when taken as a single entity
should be a space where students can freely express their ideas to their classmates and teachers,
while at the same time feel comfortable in exploring different aspects of different subjects and
themselves.

What is a conducive physical learning environment?

Having a comfortable physical space where children are able to sit comfortably, see and
understand what their teacher is saying, as well as socialise with their fellow classmates is one of
the major components of a conducive learning environment.

A CONDUCIVE PHYSICAL LEARNING ENVIRONMENT

This demo-teaching give me a chance to showcase my ability and skills as a future teacher
in the education program. A lot of things that should I consider that is my takeaways from this
course.

Learning my part of the presentation about a conducive physical learning environment it

talks about making possible or life easier, and the learning environment itself is the setting, area,
or place where the education happens between the teacher and the students.

Meaning it is a setting that makes learning possible by allowing the students and teacher a right
and freedom in exchanging, giving, and take ideas, thoughts, information, and skills among
themselves.

Flexible seating arrangement

It is a process of replacing traditional seating arrangements that give the best experience
for students the opportunity to pick their own seats. Flexible means elastic that can change anytime.
Allowing to enter the collaborative, interactive, and valuable efforts of learning style in a more
easy and useful form.

Principle: allows the interaction between teacher and students, and among students.

Teaching implication: allow the students to discuss and share their ideas with the teacher

Under the conducive physical learning environment is also the Informal seating pattern,
which has a principle that enhanced student’s social skills. In teaching implication; it develops
cooperative learning and helps one another by sharing materials just like group discussion and
poem interpretation.

I want to remind everyone that the Circular arrangement enables the students to
communicate with their classmates and gives emphasis to the teacher. That maintains the
interaction of the teacher and the students

While Horseshoe arrangement allows to see and clearly understand the lessons presented
and the student’s attention is on the teacher Infront: avoid distractions

Next is the rectangular arrangement can call the attention of the students who are easily distracted
that prevent the students from seating too close to each other

Lastly, Open Classroom allows small group and individualized instruction and increased
student interaction and gives them to move around and engage in different learning activities in
different settings.

Following in the last kind of conducive learning environment is a clean, well-lighted, well-
ventilated. Noise-free. Fresh classroom setting. It is natural light and flowing fresh air can enter
the room. The doors and windows can be easily closed without difficulty and noise in a free
classroom setting.

Overall the conducive learning environment has the advantages of allowing maximum
interaction between teacher and student and among students, students’ movement without
unnecessary distraction, allowing the teacher to survey the whole class, is safe, clean, and
adequately lighted, and making possible re-arrangement of chairs as the need arises.

In overall, the discussion succesfully delivered by the 3 students teacher they tackle out all
of the informations that the students need.
