This course looks at the role of the physical environment in children’s learning and the importance of setting up a well-organised indoor space. It will help you create a variety of rich play and learning spaces through effective organisation, showing that you don’t need to be a ‘designer’ to arrange a successful learning environment. This course includes written information and video interviews with educators that will help you assess your current indoor learning spaces.
In this course, you will:
- learn about the role of the environment in children’s learning
- understand how indoor learning environments can guide children’s behaviour and promote constructive learning
- apply critical elements within environments that support play-based learning
- find out how the environment can foster a sense of belonging and contribute to children feeling safe.
