Design and Enhancement of Communal Classrooms

The Design and Enhancement of Communal Classrooms SIG is dedicated to reimagining and transforming traditional classroom spaces into dynamic, collaborative learning environments that foster engagement, interaction, and knowledge sharing among students and educators. Our mission is to provide classroom design trips, as well as develop a checklist for the planning, design, and renovation of communal classrooms. Together, we envision a future where communal classrooms can address the evolving needs of learners and educators in the 21st century, where collaboration, student engagement and knowledge sharing are highly valued.
Our focus is on, but not limited to, the following aspects:
-
What are the key factors that contribute to a well-designed classroom?
-
What are the essential elements and key characteristics that define an ideal classroom environment?
-
What will classrooms of the future look like? How will advancements in education, technology, and pedagogical approaches shape the design and functionality of future classrooms?
