Design Matters: How School Environment Affects Children.
Elizabeth A. Hebert says:
“The organization of space profoundly affects learning. Students feel better connected to
a building that anticipates their needs and respects them as individuals. Built in 1971,
Crow Island School, in Winnetka, Illinois, is a prize-winning facility that has provided
generations of children with windowed classrooms, skylights, adjacent workrooms,
courtyard access, and spacious hallways.” (Elizabeth, 2012)
The current situation that Elizabeth Hebert shows is that the students’ needs more space,
spacious hallways, and windowed classrooms. By the other hand is really important that they
have more comfortable classes with clear illumination, current desks and chairs for each one.
They need modern classes with a projector and Internet connection.
