Learning Episode #3 Enhancing a Face-to-Face Learning
Environment
Intended Learning Outcomes:
1. Assist in the preparation of the traditional face-to-face learning
environment.
In a face-to-face classroom, students and the teacher are physically present.
They meet at a time set in the classroom. The teacher prepares activities,
provides instruction and evaluates students' learning. Equipment and
instructional materials are made available in the classroom where teaching
and learning take place most of the time.
● Some of the advantages of a face-to-face learning environment for the
students are: less distraction and more concentration than when
studying at home or elsewhere;
● greater understanding and real world examples from teachers and
classmates;
● greater chance of completing course work by doing it in the classroom
space; learn more easily and more comfortably in familiar, traditional
classroom situation;
● access more relevant information from teachers and classmates
interactions and
● greater opportunity to connect and socialize, network and solve
problems together with classmates and teacher.
● Here are some characteristics of the face-to-face or in-person learning
environment. Learning space is physical. Both the teacher and learner
see and hear each other from the same contained safe place called the
classroom.
● Lessons are delivered with the teacher physically facilitating. Reading
assignments are from textbooks and other resources provided or
referred. Class meetings occur regularly on a specific time or schedule.
● Teacher leads the conversation, within a limited amount of time.
● Assessment is done face-to-face and usually during the class meeting.

yes, because of this way we will understand the problem and provide the
students a better learning experience .
Plan
What will I do to solve the problem? Describe briefly how you will do
it.
I will group the students into 4 and the students are going to choose their
leader. The chosen leader will be given a notebook that will be used to
monitor his group. Here will be written the school work, attendance and
scores they have received. And on the last day of the month they will show
it to the teacher. The teacher will give a reward to those group who obtaine
a high score.
