Description
This research offers valuable insights that can impact various stakeholders involved in the educational process. Below are five key groups and how they stand to benefit from the study: Teachers. Teachers can benefit from this study by gaining insights into how different classroom environment factors, such as seating arrangements and teacher-student interactions, influence their students' academic performance, helping them to implement more effective teaching strategies. School Administrators. School administrators can use the findings to make informed decisions about classroom layouts, resource allocation, and teacher training to create optimal learning environments that support academic success. Students. Students can benefit from the study by experiencing improved learning outcomes as schools and teachers implement classroom environment strategies that promote engagement, motivation, and overall academic performance. Parents. Parents can gain a better understanding of how their children’s classroom environment impacts their academic success, allowing them to advocate for improvements in school settings that support their child's learning needs. Future Researchers. Future researchers will benefit from this study as it provides a comprehensive framework for further exploration into the various factors within classroom environments, encouraging deeper and more focused studies on how these elements can be optimized to improve student performance. This study systematically analyzed the effect of classroom environment on pupils' academic performance, focusing on various subjects and grade levels within primary and secondary education. The research explored the overall impact of classroom environment factors, including physical space, teacher-student interactions, emotional climate, and peer relationships, on students' academic achievement. Data were collected from a variety of schools, with an emphasis on public and private institutions, to assess how these factors influenced pupils' performance in core subjects like Mathematics, Science, and Language Arts. The study was limited to primary and secondary schools, excluding higher education institutions or preschool settings. It focused only on academic performance in core subjects and did not consider other potential influences such as extracurricular activities, socio-economic factors, or family dynamics. The study also excluded subjective assessments of classroom environment from parents or external observers, relying solely on teacher and student perceptions, along with academic performance data. Additionally, the research did not explore the long-term effects of classroom environment changes, as it focused on immediate impacts within a single academic year.
