2 Rosenthal's Model: Climate Climate, one of the four factors of Rosenthal's model, helps explain how teachers convey their expectations to students and impacts students' attitudes toward learning (Trusz, 2018). In this case, climate relates to the general atmosphere of a classroom, including its tone, atmosphere, and interpersonal dynamics. A good and conducive classroom climate helps to create a situation where the kids have confidence in one another and feel relaxed, comfortable, and accepted (Goldenberg & Klavir, 2017). Through positive reinforcement, constructive feedback, and creating a sense of belonging among the students, a teacher may increase their self-esteem and confidence. On the other hand, a hostile or unfriendly classroom climate can lead children to develop an attitude alien to learning. Students tend to feel apathetic towards a subject when they perceive that their teacher does not expect much from them or is unenthusiastic about this particular subject (Demirtaş, 2019). Moreover, when the atmosphere within the classroom is hostile, disrespectful, or unfair, the students may be demoralized and no longer strive for educational achievement. Therefore, classroom climate is very important and influences teachers' way of conveying their expectations and student attitudes toward learning. A healthy, positive, and supportive climate can help build a sense of belonging, confidence, and motivation among employees, while a negative or unsupportive climate can make students feel disengaged and demotivated (Davidovitch & Yavich, 2022). Teachers should understand the power of climate in communicating their standards to students and work on creating a climate that stimulates a desire to learn, generates self-confidence, and encourages active participation in the process of education.
