Introduction
The essay includes the resources needed in construction of effective design and also the
processes used in integrating STEM concepts in learning. The last part analyses the role of adult
and international teaching strategies in learning. In order to create a classroom environment, the
existing physical space must be considered. Every possible area of the entire classroom must be
designed to create a surrounding which literally encourages both participation and learning. This
essay thus discusses these aspects in detail
Discussion
The design will be in form of a rectangular location of 4 meters by 3 meters. The area will be
located around the school compound a few meters from the main office. The walls will be
covered with appealing paints that have different pictures supporting the STEM content. Also,
charts illustrating the STEM concepts will be well displayed on the wall.
In order to design an appropriate location for teaching there are key concepts which must be
considered. Some of the resources to be used are Building materials such as stones, cement, and
timber. It also includes Tables and desks for supporting electronic gadgets.
Open-ended materials should be available –pieces of fabric to make headdress and even the doll
blankets (Bers, Flannery, Kazakoff & Sullivan, 2014). Also, clay should be provided for thus
allowing children to create what they want.
Also, closed-ended materials such as puzzles should be available thus introducing children to
new concepts of STEM at low ages.
