Summary

In recent years, there has been a surge of interest in school and curriculum reform worldwide. Educators and policymakers now recognize that success hinges on understanding the intricate connections between student learning, social and emotional factors, and the learning environment. Researchers have delved into the effects of the learning environment on student outcomes, exploring topics such as students’ and teachers’ perceptions, attitudes toward specific subjects, and cognitive achievements in diverse, multicultural settings. Additionally, studies have investigated how 21st-century learning environments enhance students’ experiences. This volume provides a contemporary overview of the impact of learning environments on student outcomes. The articles within explore scientific insights, thought-provoking ideas, innovative approaches, and future-oriented scenarios across all levels of schooling—from primary to tertiary education, including out-of-school and online environments. The articles in this special issue draw on theoretical frameworks and best practices from intervention studies, learning-based experiments, and qualitative, quantitative and mixed-methods approaches.
