Abstract:

The purpose of this research was to determine if there is an association between classroom environment, the teacher’s management practice and students’ performance.

I needed to learn what worked best in my classroom, so I could determine whether changes I made to improve my classroom environment also helped improve students’ learning.

In order to achieve this goal, I analyzed the results of students in English Summative Assessment Test in spring 2013 and spring 2014 when two different styles of environments have been used to teach the same group of students; a demotivated environment 2013 and a well-prepared environment 2014.

I then compared between the results to discover how the changes in the classroom environment affected students’ performance in that classroom.

In addition to that, I used a survey questionnaire that contained ten questions related to the changes I made to my classroom environment.

I used the questionnaire to collect data from my students in grade 12 so that I could examine their overall happiness with the well- prepared environment.

The analysis of data shows a positive correlation between classroom environment, the teacher’s management practice and student performance.
