Understanding the Setting Where Learning Takes Place

Part 1- How the Environment Makes You Feel1. #List (Indoor - Outdoor) settings where you feel relaxed and relatively at home and

settings where you feel awkward. Look for elements that seem to affect yourfeelings.

2. Pick a student from the (PK, K, 1-5, 6-8, or 9-12) grade level category that you planto study and explain how he or she behaves differently across settings. By pickingthis level you are selecting the focus for your final class project and the focus of yourstudy for these two courses.

3. #Select a work setting, a living setting, and another setting. Analyze the message ofthe space, and look for elements that seem to work for or against you or the otherinhabitants in realizing the goals of the setting.
