Task A Research Report
It is important to create the right learning environment for your subject area in order for learning to take place and for your students to get the best from your session. For example if your subject area is construction skills then a kitchen would not be a suitable venue.
The layout of your room/venue is equally as important for learning to take place. If you are delivering a practical part of a lesson and are demonstrating a task/activity it is important that all your students can see what you’re doing or this could hinder learning. Here are some examples of styles of room layout.

• Tests/exams
Disadvantages
• Group work

• Practical activities
• Difficult for teachers to move around the space

Advantages
• Group work
• Interaction with teacher and each other

Boardroom style

At the start of our lessons we allow 15 minutes social time where students can interact with the teacher and other students in an informal way thus allowing us to observe for issues and additional needs....
