A conducive classroom environment for learning in middle classes centres around _________.

  • A.fear of punishment and embarrassment
  • B.co-operative learning
  • C.competitive ethos
  • D.conditioning and reinforcement

Answer: B

A conducive classroom for middle-school learners centres around co-operative learning.

Children in the middle grades are moving into early adolescence, when peer relationships matter a great deal. Co-operative learning, where small groups work together towards shared goals with individual accountability, uses that social energy for learning, builds communication and teamwork, and creates a supportive climate.

Fear of punishment and embarrassment creates anxiety that blocks learning. A competitive ethos sets students against each other and discourages weaker learners, and conditioning and reinforcement describe a behaviourist technique rather than a learning environment.
