Atmosphere has a real power...
Let's look at the Earth's atmosphere and imagine how would we go without it...
The atmosphere that an activity generates in a place has the power to bring out the best or the worst in us...
During a class because of its atmosphere students can understand the class better and take some rest from their minds busy with the thoughts of their different "I's".
When the atmosphere of a class is disturbed, students lose the accumulation of understanding the class was transmitting and remember the disturbance instead.
When the atmosphere of a class is held intact in harmony the main message of the class is transmitted and given the best chance to be assimilated by all the students into their own personal atmosphere.
The atmosphere of a class can be disturbed in many different ways and in varying degrees.
The word, gestures and emotional vibes are ways the atmosphere of an activity is disturbed the most.
Comments and questions of ill-intention, comments and questions that are off topic and comments that go on for too long are the ways a class atmosphere is disturbed the most.
We can also see the principle of atmosphere working in remembering our dreams.
If we lose the dream atmosphere that we return to the physical world with, we can remember our dreams. As soon as that atmosphere dissipates we lose the connection with our dreams and we can't remember what we dreamt anymore.
To be responsible, we should teach with the best possible atmosphere and create and help maintain the atmosphere most conducive to promote learning for all those attending the class.
