FUTURE classroom (^,^)

Classroom of the future should be reformed to be a place where the learning environments are imaginative and stimulating.. This is to inspire pupils to achieve more in their learning..

First of all, I believe that we should have more school so that there will not cramped too many pupils in a classroom..Nowadays each classroom, usually consists of 40 and above pupils..I think this condition is not comfortable for both pupils and teacher..As an example, my mother had been teaching Standard One pupils fr almost twelve years now..She told me that for every year,there must be about 43 to 45 pupils in her classroom..She found that, this condition had affected some pupils to focus during teaching and learning..They were easily distracted as they were quite playful..Moreover, with their short attention span, pupils could be uncontrollable.. Therefore, more schools should be built to make sure that pupils can be placed at least 25 persons in each classroom..

Secondly, each teacher should have an assistant to help he or she during teaching time (manage group, prepare teaching aids).. The assistant also should help manage the clerical works for teacher..For instance, filling the report card, individually identification card for recording health, pupils' background etc.With the help of an assistant, teacher can focus on teaching process and they can mark pupils' work..This way, teacher is able to identify pupils' weaknesses and strengths.. Teacher can improvise teaching and help pupils with their problematic areas in learning..

Next, each classroom should have their own LCD projector..Last year when I went to school for practical, I noticed that almost each classroom had LCD white screen..However for each school, there was only two LCD projector available to be used for the whole school..This might be the problem for teacher to plan teaching aids that need the use of LCD projector..Additionally, technicians should be employed at least five persons for each school to take in charge of setting the LCD and so on..

Then, I believe in future classroom, each classroom should have a Smart Board..Therefore, pupils will be motivated and as Smart Board is a useful tool for visualization..Computers are also necessary to be provided to each pupils..Future learning need to be more on pupil-centered..Hence, wireless connection should be improved..Teacher can use online Educational Websites, Videos for learning purposes..Essentially, each school had been given wireless connection..But from my observations, it was not reachable to the whole school.. The connection can only been used in the office or staff room but not in classroom..So, wireless connections should be broaden and fixed to be used to the maximum.. Air-conditioned may be considered for each classroom to provide optimum learning environment to pupils and teacher..

These are things that pictured in my minds for my future classroom..I believe that our Malaysian School can be improved by testing out these ideas and construct of how should a school be designed in the future.. For me, it is not a waste to invest for Education Line because our children are the future of the nation.. To develop the nation, it should start from the early stage of childhood..So, these ideas should be considered=)
Finally, may our Education will progress from time to time..
