Class Arrangement - Wikipedia
Class arrangement refers to a layout of the physical setup of chairs, tables, materials in a school
classroom. In most countries, this arrangement is often chosen by paid, professional teacher
with the assistance of a seating chart. Deciding upon classroom arrangement is typically done
at the beginning of a school year as a part of classroom management. The decision to change
the classroom environment is thought to affect the student engagement, focus and
participation.[1]
Some research suggests that seating location is related to academic achievement and
classroom participation and class arrangement has the ability to affect the communal
environment within the room. [2]
Arrangement patterns
Around the turn of the 20th century, new education mandates and laws banning child labor
rapidly increase school enrollments, standardizing facility design.[4] Traditional classroom
layouts had students facing the instructor with their backs toward each other.
The modern and flexible open space classroom represents a change from traditional chair desk
combos.
