    Learning Environment

    Learning Environment gives emphasis to the place or space where learning occurs.

    A learning environment has many meanings according to the way it is used. Besides its definition as an
    indicator of learning task (Tynjala, 1999), psychosocial environments in class (Henderson, Fisher, &
    Fraser, 2000), and virtual environments formed with computer and internet technologies (Fulkerth,
    2002), it is also used in a very wide range of ways. Studies on learning environments focus on behavior
    management, classroom rules and discipline, motivation of students, teaching methods, the set-up of
    classroom tools (tables, desks, etc.), and even the color of the classroom (Chesebro & McCroskey, 2002;
    Slavin, 2000; Snowman & Biehler, 2003).

    Learning environment is made up of both physical and psychological aspects of the environment.
    Physical environment has an impact on human behavior, thinking, feeling and attitude. The study of how
    human behavior, thinking, feeling and attitude change under different physical environments is known
    as Environmental Psychology. According to Ken (2006), some learning environments are more
    comfortable and offer fewer distractions than others.

    It was found that, even though the students viewed the class positively, and
    described themselves as highly motivated to learn, the level of cognitive
    engagement was affected by two interrelated factors: the control the teacher had
    over almost all activities, and student beliefs about learning in this context.

    The learning environment is a purposefully organized set of physical, social and informative conditions in
    which the pupil forms and implements his/her experience: knowledge, skills and attitudes to oneself and
    the surrounding world (Šūmane, 2012).

    According to Wilson the learning environment contains the learner and a setting or “space” in which the
    learner acts using tools and devices, collecting and interpreting information, perhaps interacting with
    others (Wilson, 1995).

    The learning environment is also defined as the interaction of three factors (Learning Environment,
    2013; Bates, 2015): • diversified physical space (not only the classroom), • context for what the pupil is
    learning, • culture of what and how the pupil is learning (cooperation, relations, attitude).

    the result of "mental construction."

    when compared to the perceptions of students in a conventional lecture-based
    environment.
