Danielson's second domain is about the classroom environment. It is up to the teacher to develop the type of classroom environment he sees fit to encourage learning. Teachers all have different ideas to create the perfect environment for their classroom; different ideas are not wrong because the type of exact environment a teacher wants varies. Teachers should determine their classroom environment and commit to the one that works for them. Although teachers previously determine their desired environment, it is up to them to maintain it every day. The environment in which students are placed have a major impact on their learning. There are five components of this domain, which contribute to the classroom environment:
Each of these components will be further described and analyzed in their respective subpages.
