1. Design of the effective
learning classroom

2. What is learning?
 Learning is a change in the attitude,
knowledge and habits of an individual
which occurs as a result of experience
gradually.
 In other words, learning is the name of
change in the character of an individual.

4. Design of Effective learning in
classroom
LEARNER-CENTERED
ENVIRONMENT
We use the term “learner
centered” to refer to
environments that pay
careful attention to the
knowledge, skills, attitudes,
and beliefs that learners
bring to the educational
setting.

5. Design of effective learning in classroom
KNOWLEGDE-CENTERED
ENVIRONMENT
 Knowledge-centered environments
take seriously the need to help
students become knowledgeable by
learning in ways that lead to
understanding and subsequent
transfer.
 Standards in areas such as
mathematics and science help define
the knowledge and competencies
that students need to acquire.
ASSESMENT-CENTERED
ENVIRONMENT
 In addition to being learner
centered and knowledge
centered, effectively designed
learning environments must
also be assessment centered.

6. Principles of designing effective
learning in classroom
 Design exercises that put students in situations where
they have to express their thinking,
 Design feedback so that it guides improvement in learning
or mastery of the learning goals
 Design exercises that rely on collaboration so that all
voices are at the table.
 Design learning environments so that all students are
active participants.

7. Resources for learning
Learning resources include
Textbooks (print and digital)
Workbooks
Worksheets
Flashcards
Educational games
Non-fiction books

 Maps
 Models
 Websites
 Software
 Online courses
 Activity books
 Graphic novels
 Reference books
 DVDs
 CDs

9. Learning styles
Learning styles are simply different approaches or
ways of learning.
There are three different learning styles
1. Visual learning
2. Auditory learning
3. Tactile/Kinesthetic learning

10. Learning styles

11. Visual learning(Flashcards)

12. Auditory Learning (Tape recorder)

13. Kinesthetic learning (Learning
through do it)

14. Visual aids used for enhancing the
learning environment in classroom

Enhancing the
Learning
process

15. What is visual thinking and visual learning?
• Visual thinking is a learning style
where the learner better understands
and retains information when ideas,
words and concepts are associated
with images. Some common visual
learning strategies include creating
graphic organizers, diagramming,
mind mapping, outlining and more.

16. How does visual learning help students?
Visual learning helps students
organize and analyze
information.
Visual learning helps students
integrate new knowledge.
Visual learning helps students
think critically.

17. Purpose of visual aids
Time saver
Gain and holds the Viewers interest.
Increase understanding
Stimulate the development of understandings and
attitudes.
Create a unique and lasting impression.

18. Seating Arrangement
Seating Arrangement for effective
learning in classroom
(Definition)
“The physical setup of chairs, tables
and presentation in a classroom can
significantly influence learning.”

19. Types of seating Arrangements
Row Arrangement
Circle Arrangement
Semi-circular Arrangement
Round Table Arrangement

20. Types of seating Arrangements
U Shape Arrangement
 Cluster arrangement
Groups, Pairs, and Pods
Section classroom

21. Circular Arrangement
Advantages
 Thin can enable teacher it signal
to more active participants.
 Involves everyone in the group.
There is no table in the middle,
therefore people are
unobstructed and can speak
directly to each other. Creates
equality among the group, with
no designated “leader” position.
Disadvantages
 Some people feel uncomfortable
or exposed in this type of
arrangement. Can only handle
small groups of people. Not
conducive to visual aids or AV
presentations.

22. U-Shape Arrangement
Advantages
 Easy to see and hear everyone in
the group.
 Front of room commands the
group’s attention.
 Unity is created by ganging all the
tables together.
 Best set up to view audio visual
presentations.
 Works well with role-playing and
other physical activities.
Disadvantages
 Requires more space than any
other configuration.
 Due to space and learning
requirements, the maximum
amount of participants should
not exceed 24.

23. Row Arrangement
This is most common arrangement in
a class. The number of rows is
decided by the strength of the class.
Advantages
Supervision and teaching can be
made easier by row arrangement.
