Abstract

This paper summarizes the importance of classroom organization and design on learning. As we move into an "information age," we must teach our children to respect and value learning, problem solving, and collaboration. These skills are not supported through the traditional classroom where students sit in rows, listening quietly to a lecturing teacher. For this reason, the modern teacher must approach classroom design as thoughtfully as their curriculum. Classroom design has been shown to support performance, attendance, classroom culture, and engagement. By implementing intentional classroom seating, learning stations, pathways, and visuals, a teacher is able to create an optimal learning environment. The classroom is not just a space for learning, but an integral part of the learning experience.
