Student Placement
Place easily distracted students away from each other,
doorways, windows and areas of high traffic
Preferably, place to one side of the classroom, close to the front
An inclusive classroom should place students in areas of the
class best suited to their needs
Classroom Decoration
Students like to see their own work displayed, even in High
Schools
Class-made posters help students develop a sense of
belonging to the classroom
Plants and animals can have positive effects on the
classroom (Nicholls, 2006)
conclusion
Classroom physical environment effects morale and student learning.
The environment should match your objectives, both in terms of human
interaction and your instructional approach.
The arrangement of seating is one major variable.
Including students in creating the physical environment can enhance that
environment, increase the feeling of classroom community, and give students
a sense of empowerment.
