There are several things to consider when setting up a classroom. Ask questions like:\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>What age are the students?<\/b> All ages learn differently. Younger students might benefit from more collaborative workspaces. Older students might work better with technology integration. Understanding which setup works best for your students is essential to creating a helpful learning environment.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>What is the size of the classroom?<\/b> You might think classrooms with more space are easier to design. But any size room is easy to arrange when you use adaptable furniture. However, you might need to test out a few steps before deciding on the ideal layout. Whether you\u2019re looking for computer lab desks, collaborative desks, or computer tables,\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/smartdesks.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SMARTdesks<\/a><span style=\"white-space: normal;\">\u00a0helps you elevate any size of classroom.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>What subject is being taught?<\/b> English classrooms are different from art classrooms. Designing your space to accommodate the subject matter is important for effective learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>What special needs do individual students have?<\/b> Some students might have special needs in their learning plan. Not every student learns the same. Certain disabilities that affect a student&#8217;s ability to learn in certain layouts. That means arranging the classroom should take different learning styles and disabilities into consideration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> Keep in mind that depending on the lesson or activity, the desk arrangement may need to be modified. Be open to experimenting with various setups to see which suits your students the best. Some arrangements include:<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>Traditional Rows:<\/b> Desks are arranged in rows facing the front of the classroom. The teacher lectures using the whiteboard or screen located at the front\u2014a layout that helps teachers see all students at once. That means students can easily engage with the teacher. However, this arrangement isn\u2019t great for collaboration between students.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>Clusters\/Groups:<\/b> Desks are grouped into small clusters facing each other. Collaboration is encouraged, which leads to rich discussions. A cluster setup also allows for flexibility, because students are enabled to easily move around the classroom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>U-Shaped:<\/b> Desks are arranged in a U-shape facing the front of the classroom. Typically the teacher\u2019s desk is front-and-center in the room. Students collaborate with others easier than in rows, which leads to better discussions among students.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>Circle:<\/b> Desks are arranged in a circle, so students face each other, encouraging open discussion. It is also ideal for collaboration, because students can all see and interact with one another. Not all students will face the front, so lecturing with a whiteboard is less effective.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> \u25cf <b>Semi-Circle:<\/b> Desks are arranged in a half-circle facing the front of the classroom. As with rows and groups, teachers can instruct students from the front. It also encourages discussion like the U-shape.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"white-space: normal;\"> Every layout has advantages and disadvantages, so educators should select one that fits the specific needs of their students and the activities they want to do in class. One study suggests that the best classroom layout should be\u00a0<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/scholarworks.montana.edu\/xmlui\/bitstream\/handle\/1\/1419\/HammangA0812.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">left to the teachers<\/a><span style=\"white-space: normal;\">.
