Thanks Larry for the following!
The latest educational tech strategies to enhance learning, fast networks, the latest hardware and software can all for naught without out apositive classroom learning environment . Sometimes, not all the time, but once in a while we can actually inspire/motivate students to learn. Most often, we create structures and opportunities for students to learn and progress. If that is done in apositive learning climate, "miracles" do happen. In a negative environment, however, much damage to learning and a student's relationship to learning can be done in arelatively short period of time.
ASCD Special Report: The Positive Classroom (Part 1) Even when resources are short and stress is high, a teacher can shape a child's future with a few gentle words, a virtual trip across the globe or a carefully chosen question or compliment. But classroom management rarely comes easy for new teachers and many veteran educators still struggle to keep class running smoothly while meeting the needs of every child.
