Classroom Climate

The idea
Classroom climate is the emotional culture of a learning environment: positive climates offer encouragement, organization, warmth and respect for questions.
In practice
Aloof, disorganized teachers seeing off-task behaviour; intrusive, authoritarian teachers breeding anxiety.
Where people slip
Warm, autonomy-supporting teachers bring students closest to their potential; chaos, criticism and harsh discipline lead students to disengage.
Your place on the trail
Every lesson rests on earlier ones and opens later ones. Tap any to jump.
