  24. Physical structure of the School Lecture 4 - Effective School

  25. Introduction • Sociology of the school involves studying the “school climate” • Definition – characterizes the organization at the school building and classroom level. • Specifically, reflects the physical and physiological aspects of the school Lecture 4 - Effective School

  26. Components of school climate • Appearance and physical environment • Faculty relations • Student interactions • Leadership/decision-making • Disciplined environment • Learning environment • Attitude & Culture • School-community relations Lecture 4 - Effective School

  27. Overview of Relationship Between school climate & physical environment Physical environment Students’ achievement School climate Motivation of teachers Community involvement Basis of effective learning Re-evaluate if goal is not achieved Policy of education Lecture 4 - Effective School

  28. Elements of Physical structures Layout of facilities such as library, labs, classrooms etc Level of usage of facilities /engagement by students Maintenance of equipment /facilities Lecture 4 - Effective School

  29. Theoretical framework of physical environment to learning • C. McGuffey (1982), identified a number of studies that examined the possibility of a relationship between building condition and student performance on standardized tests. • Student achievement is linked to: • 1) Building quality, • 2) Improved lighting, • 3) Indoor air quality, • 4) Building features such as science labs and libraries Lecture 4 - Effective School

  30. Theoretical framework C.S Cash (1993), found that comfort factors appear to have more effect on student achievement than structural factors: • Air conditioned classrooms, • Less noisy external environments, • Less graffiti, • Classroom furniture are in good condition Lecture 4 - Effective School

  31. Theoretical framework • Tanner (2000) found that “pathways” are important in encouraging ease of movement and positive outdoor spaces which allow learning to extend beyond classroom walls. • G. I, Earthman (2004), found that overcrowding has a negative effect on student learning. Lecture 4 - Effective School

  32. Supportive physical environment • School building, school yard, playgrounds and halls play very important roles. • - Appropriate, attractive, and well-cared external physical conditions support and facilitate learning; • - Welcoming, comfortable and safe environment, with access to adequate appropriate resources enables learning to take place. Lecture 4 - Effective School

  33. Supportive physical environment • School building contains a limited number of students; • Students feel safe and comfortable in the school; • Classrooms are orderly; • Classrooms and grounds are clean and well-maintained; • Noise level is low; • Areas for instruction and activities are appropriate for usage; • Classrooms are visible and inviting; • Staff members have sufficient textbooks and supplies Lecture 4 - Effective School

  34. Challenges to having a conducive physical environment • Budgetary constraint (insufficient funds) • Bureaucracy and lack of support from community • Lack of “maintenance” attitude of resources • Attitude of “low priority” concern Lecture 4 - Effective School

  35. Conclusion • Study on the effects of physical environment has showed significant positive relationship of student achievement. • Developing, improving, and sustaining a healthy school climate (physical environment) should be the goal of every school because it has consistently showed that when the school climate is right and supportive, there is joy in coming to school; either to teach or to learn.
