Being part of the group which studied on Moos one can not deny the impact of his work on the Learning Environment.
However, after sitting through the presentations, we could appreciate the work of others such as Murray and Lewin who had started way before Moos.
Fraser has succeeded Moos in leading the journey on Classroom Learning Environment.
Though interested in different aspects, everyone of them has played a major part. Moos with his Classroom Environment scales, Fraser and his SLEI, Lewin with his Force Field Analysis and Murray's TAT.
All of these have some kind of effect in the researches done in Asia as many Asian researchers tend to modify the instruments crafted by westerners for use in their countries.
This trend has deprived Asia of its own researchers developing their own tools.
Are these tools designed for western Learning Environments effective in assessing our Asian Learning Environments?
Will there be a change in this trend?
Will Asia have its own developed tools to assess the Learning Environments in Asia?
