1. This is a high school theater arts class. You'll want to take note of the rapport Mrs. Prudhomme has developed with her students. Her classroom is pretty laid back and she frequently uses humor to encourage and keep kids engaged. How is this type environment different than a traditional classroom environment

I think the environment resemble a traditional learning environment.

Explanation:

It should be understood that a traditional learning environment can be explained or described as a synchronized environment, that is the students or learners are confined in a particular place for learning. It also includes the use of many materials to teach the students for easy and effective understanding.

Therefore, in this case, the methods Mrs Prudhomme is making use of, is a typical replica of the traditional learning environment.

The functionalist perspective states that societies develop social structure, or institutions that persist because they play a part in helping society survive. These institutions include the family, education, government, religion, the economy and dozens more. This perspective focuses on the fact that many people and interworking of a society work together and try to attain perfect harmony. By maintaining harmony and balance the society benefits greatly.
