Enhancing a face-to-face or in person Classroom Environment for Learning

In a face to face classroom, students and the teacher are physically present. They met at a time
set in the classroom. The teacher prepares activities, provides instruction and evaluate
students’ learning. Equipment and instructional materials are made available in the classroom
where teaching and learning take place most of the time.

Some advantages of a face to face learning environment for the students are the ff:
 Less distraction and more concentration than when studying at home or elsewhere;
 Greater understanding and real world examples from teachers and classmates;
 Greater chance of completing course work by doing it in the classroom space;
 Learn more easily and more comfortably in familiar, traditional classroom situation;4
 Access more relevant information from teachers and classmates interactions and
 Greater opportunity to connect and socialize, network and solve problems together
with classmates and teachers

Here are some characteristics of the face to face or in-person learning environment.
 Learning space is physical. Both the teacher and the learner see and hear each other
from the same contained safe place called the classroom;
 Lessons are delivered with the teacher physically facilitating. Reading assignments are
from textbooks and other resources provided or referred.
 Class meetings occur regularly on a specific time or schedule.
 Teacher leads the conversation, within a limited amount of time.
 Assessment is dine face to face and usually during the class meeting

Safe and conducive on-line or virtual learning environment (VLE)

Education has dramatically shifted in recent years. Schools aligned physical spaces to
flexible spaces that integrate technology to support the 21st century learning opportunities. The
modern learning environment incorporates the three elements: (1) connected devices such as
notebooks, tablets, smart phones; (2) audio visual tools including projectors and touch screen
displays and (3) purposeful furniture such as standing desks, collaborative work stations and
connected seating that allow students t learn in different ways at different times.
The on-line learning environment requires a constant access to connectivity which
allows learning to take place anytime, anyplace and anywhere. On-line or virtual learning can
be delivered synchronously or asynchronously, so the teacher’s role is a moderator between
the technology and the students.
Unlike face-to-face, on-line or virtual learning does not happen in one contained
physical space but learners are in different imaginary spaces made possible by technology such
as computer network. Virtual classrooms refer to digital learning environment that allows
teachers and students to connect on line in real time.

Let us now consider an on-line or virtual classroom or learning environment. What are
some safety reminders to remember?

1. Encourage parents and carers involvement. Keep parents/carers informed of how you
and the children will be using the on-line platform.

 Assist them on how to set up appropriate home learning spaces, is students will be
learning from home.
 Provide contact times and classroom schedules.
 Provide procedures to follow and consequences if they failed.
 Share information about protection from cyberbullying and image abuse.

2. Make lesson plans as interactive as possible to keep attention of students. Be flexible

with class length and topics.
 Make assignments as guided as possible. Teachers may need to source
research sites to ensure on-line safety.
 Provide students with resources. Share with your students websites and
videos so as not to take them to inappropriate materials such as ads
from You Tube and other sites.

3. Encourage public chatting. Avoid texting students one-on-one, instead send a group
text, or group chat. When using technology like zoom, google.meet, MOOCS allow public
chatting or group instead of chatting privately so that you can part of their
conversation.
4. Use of password, log in and log out.
 All students should have individual password. This should not be
disclosed.

Page | 43
EDUCATION 403- FIELD STUDY 2

 No one should log in as another person.

 All users should log off when they have finished working.

There are more reminders to follow in the use of the digital platform for virtual or on-
line learning environment but for the meantime let us have a few. As technology advances, so
do policies and guidelines.

PARTICIPATE and ASSIST

If you are assisting your mentor in an on-line class, these are some reminders you
should share to your remote learners on a synchronous platform like google.meet, zoom,
MOOCS or any other platforms you are familiar with and are using.

With the use of any Google Meet, Zoom or any platform, organize a virtual class. Do this
with the guidance of your mentor.

 Make sure your device is  Find a quiet place free of  Be on time for the class
charged distractions

 Be respectful at all times  Stay on mute and raise hand  Stay focused and on task so
only if needed you won’t miss any
information

 Turn on your camera  Use kind words at all times  Teacher and learners are
dressed properly

Unlike the traditional face-to-face classroom environment online or virtual

environment is a bit difficult to manage. It is because Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) is

CLARIFY Your Task

Establishing my own classroom routines and procedures

(face-to-face or remote learning)

Routines are the backbones of daily classroom life. They facilitate teaching and
learning. Routines don’t just make the life of the teacher easier. They save valuable
classroom time. Efficient routines make it easier for students to learn and achieve
more.
Establishing routines early in the school year enables you to run your daily
activities run smoothly; ensures that you manage time effectively; helps you maintain
order in the classroom; makes you more focused in teaching because you send less
time in giving directions/instructions; and enables you to explain to the learners what
are expected of them.
Classroom routines set the foundation for a meaningful school year with
teachers and students whether in the classroom or remotely. To teach classroom
routines remotely, it is best to record videos and to post these in the learning
management system so students may watch them over and over again for better
retention and for families to view them so they can assist their children when needed.
Students can take an active role in establishing classroom routines. They can
brainstorm on ideas which they will most likely do and follow. Routines are important
especially when done in remote learning so that there will be less distractions both for
synchronous and asynchronous participation.

CLARIFY Your Task

Creating My Classroom/Remote Learning Management Plan

A classroom management plan is a plan that a teacher designs that sets the
expectations for every student. The purpose of a classroom management plan is to
make the students accountable for their actions. Effective classroom management
increases students’ success, enhances students’ academic skills and competencies and
promotes social and emotional development.

The teaching-learning process may be implemented in various modalities.

Teachers must bear in mind that alternatives and other options may be considered in
designing the classroom/ remote management plan.

A good learning environment produces highly engaged students who learn

more, do more and work more. Teachers likewise become more creative and
productive in their work.

Key Elements for Effective Classroom Management:

1. Classroom design: this refers to seating arrangement, bulletin boards, display,

storage area, equipment, supplies etc.
2. Rules: there are the expectations set at the beginning of the class to foster love,
care, respect and sense of community in the class.
3. Discipline: classroom rules must define the consequences of every action/
misdemeanour in class. This will ensure fairness and consistency in dealing with
the students. This also includes the rewards given for good behaviour.
4. Scheduling: this includes time allotment given for each period and activity in
class. This will make the students to stay on time and on task.
5. Organization. This refers to the systematic arrangement of files and records and
keeping them organized always and ready for use.
6. Instructional techniques: these are ways by which you implement your learning
content. Tailoring your techniques to subject, grade levels and nature of the
learner is really important.
7. Communication: consistent open lines of communication to all the stakeholders
of the school community will lead to better teacher-students teacher
relationship.

In order to implement these elements effectively, a classroom management plan

must be designed. Each teacher has its own unique style of management to meet
class needs, although the same elements are found consistently. In order for a
classroom management plan to be successful, the students must have a
Page | 56
EDUCATION 403- FIELD STUDY 2

complete understanding of each of the guidelines. At the same time, teachers

must follow their plan to ensure that the learning environment is safe, friendly,
secured and non-threatening whether in the classroom or in remote learning.

their lessons effectively to ensure a successful instructional experience. There are three
types of lesson plans: detailed, semi-detailed and brief. Some schools design their own
lesson plan template which includes their vision, mission, goals and core values.

The Department of Education has provided templates for Detailed Lesson Plan
(DLP) and Daily Lesson Log (DLL). This was done to institutionalize instructional
planning which is vital to the teaching-learning process. Guidelines were formulated to
assist teachers in planning, organizing and managing their lessons to meet the needs of
the diverse learners.

Teachers must also keep in mind that in stating the learning outcomes, the three
domains must be considered (Cognitive, Affective and Psychomotor). Outcomes must
be stated in terms that are specific, measurable, attainable, and realistic and time-
bound (SMART). The cognitive domain includes remembering, understanding,
applying, analysing, evaluating and creating.

When writing lesson plans, the learning outcomes, activities and assessment
must be constructively aligned. The instructional strategies used must help in the
attainment of the learning outcomes. The modes of assessment must determine if the
outcomes were attained at the end of the lesson.
