Value Of Having Interactive Classroom

By Heidi Carver


A classroom would be effective for learning if there is interaction. It would be nice if the teacher is not the only one who would talk. It would be better if the student would also talk and interact with others as he learn.

There are schools that have developed a lot of strategies for learning. Schools thought of making an interactive classroom. That was a good idea as it offered many advantages in being sure that a student learns more about what was taught to him.

This idea is much better than having a traditional classroom. It does not limit the scope of subjects being learned. Learners are allowed to actively participate in the class using various techniques. The following are the benefits of having it in a school.

A student can study a subject at his own pace. By working at his own pace, he could prepare for other tasks outside the course. This allows a student to just study quickly in a subject he already understands and slow down on the subject which he finds hard. Through this, other students will not be delayed by other learners who find some lesson hard. The teacher could just add a new subject when students are ready for it.

It would be an advantage for the school in having reduced operation expenses. They could save money on utility bills as their students do not have to be in the classroom always. The school could then use these rooms to teach classes which they could not teach interactively. There are some schools which allow learners and teachers to meet online during a bad weather. The student does not need to go to school and, thus, save on transportation.

In this kind of learning, a traditional board is done online. A board like this includes a message thread made by their teachers. A student can use the threads to post some questions and to participate in their discussion. A student can work and can answer questions wherever he may be. He also has an option to be able to use chat rooms for discussing things real time.

If a teacher is not an expert on certain subjects, they can use this type of learning in teaching students. It will be able to provide a student the lessons for that subjects. If the school does not have concept models for some subjects, there are already software programs available to be able to create that.

This style can also encourage a pupil to make his communication skills improved. He can be encouraged to improve it to be able to have more interaction on a discussion. It helps to develop their confidence in interacting with other people. It will then be simple for him to express ideas on a subject.

Having this type of learning, learners would develop their critical thinking and communication skills. It would not limit them as to what is just available in the classroom. It provides a lot of sources for the subjects if they wanted to learn more about it. It would be a good training for them to be prepared for the real world.
