Creating a Positive Climate for Learning

Creating an atmosphere to foster learning is one of the most important tasks of teaching. This requires teachers to employ many different strategies to motivate students, to increase students opportunities to learn, to help students learn and maintain appropriate behavior, to promote student self-responsibility, and to foster accountability.
