In designing St. Olaf College's Regents Hall of Natural |
|
and Mathematical Sciences, we attempted to create |
|
learning spaces to accommodate classes of 50-100 students |
|
and a variety of teaching pedagogies. In this study, we |
|
compared three different 72-seat classrooms furnished |
|
with half-round tables for four, straight tables, or a |
|
serpentine shaped table with crests that seat four |
|
students. We found that faculty preferred the learning |
|
environment of the half-round tables for all pedagogies. |
|
Students preferred the half-round tables for group work |
|
or a combination of group work and lecture, but preferred |
|
the straight tables for lecture classes. |
