So what is key in facilitating learning? There is no single factor, rather a combination of factors i.e. creating a conducive and enabling school and classroom environment where discipline, school ethos and culture promotes the core business of teaching and learning.
A healthy, clean, well-organised, print-rich and equipped learning environment contributes to effective teaching, but does not guarantee learning. In the most ideal situation, the learner will report to school after a peaceful night's rest with a filled tummy; happy and excited for the day's activities. However, many teachers would testify that this is not the case for the majority of learners. This is where experience, skills, expertise and creativity come together and work magic.
I am in agreement to all what you are saying and must admit that it is quite challenging nowadays to be a step ahead of the learners. We deal with children who are so much aware of the newest technology , thus leading to a teacher who dare not stop learning.
