The Effects of Classroom Environment on Academic Achievement, Classroom Behavior and Attitudes of Inner-City Students

Abstract

dc:description

At a public high school in the City of Chicago, the effects of a stimulating versus a non-stimulating classroom environment were investigated over a nine-week grading period for a freshman-level course, Careers in Horticulture. The study was conducted in the second of four grading periods for the school year 1982-1983. A total of sixty students were assigned to each classroom on a random basis and the instruction in each classroom was randomly shared by two Chicago-system approved teachers.
