Entry #7 What are two ways classroom design has changed over the past twenty years? Explain in depth each way.

School’s classrooms must be places whose atmosphere establishes a sense of security, ownership, and comfort in order to learning to be optimized. Students learn  better in confortable places.The classrooms design has to meet students´ needs, these are: auditory, visual and kinesthetic.


  The Traditional Classrooms was designed to teachers stayed infront of the students. Students were one  after the other infront of the teachers.This is referred to as direct instruction, where students most often are the passive recipients of information.
They couldn´t work outside the classroom if the room was small, interact each other wasn´t the most important thing. Many years ago, the desks and benches weren't moving, they were glued to the floor; in  this type of classrooms, students couldn´t interact.

In the nontraditional classroom design, desks' students are arranged in a semi-circle or an U shape; also, the teachers and students feel confortable when they are doing an activity; teachers can be work inside or outside the classroom. Facilitators have to create a good environment for them.
The teacher can develop the lessons  using the diffetens parts of the room. these may include: tales, activities in groups,and activities that  involving all the learners.
This design allows students to have a sense of ownership as the lessons are not conducted with the; instead for them.
