Learner Profile
Environment: Flexible
I will be using two different types of classroom environments the first one is called the flexible classroom where students will be a part of the learning process Flexible classrooms are learning spaces designed to encourage student interaction, to engage them with active learning techniques and thereby create the opportunity for retention and transfer of knowledge and deeper learning. (UT, n.d.)
The basic idea of flexible classrooms is to remove students from a passive learning environment and instead create a space that encourages and facilitates their involvement in each and every class. (UT, n.d.)
