NOTE

Minimize Noise for Effective Teaching

To create a conducive learning environment, it is crucial to minimize verbal disruptions in the classroom. Teachers should avoid making general statements about noise levels, as these often exacerbate the problem by encouraging students to speak up. Instead of filling the classroom with unnecessary chatter or distractions, teachers should aim for a calm atmosphere and engage with students positively and directly. Recognizing individual students for quick progress or gently prompting those lagging behind can help maintain focus without introducing additional noise. Establishing a calm order and positioning oneself strategically in the classroom can further enhance teaching effectiveness.
