TOPIC: WHY ARCHITECTURE?
Ethnographic Research (Learning Commons Research Team) Learning spaces and student opinion Architecture and design can effect learning!
What can I learn about this in France? Do they value the same things? What do their schools look like? How do they set their classrooms up?

Artificial Light Flicker rate=tired
students and distracted students
Potential eye problems

AMERICAN SCHOOL ARCHITECTURE
Not the same focus on natural light Especially in older schools
My classroom at Marshall High School The envy of all classrooms!
“A lot” of light and two windows

EXCEPTION TO THE RULE
Mrs. Gallon-Jones “European Section” English Class

EUROPEAN SECTION
Students work together and learn from one another

MY EXPERIENCE
Very different from teaching style I saw in France Raise a hand? Huh?
Team work
Student-led discussions
![Page 21: Just Another Brick in the wall](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/56815f61550346895dce4bcf/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
CONCLUSION: WHO WINS?
That’s not the point! But, I win (my students, too!)
Critically look at both situations and ask “What works for me?”
Incorporate both sides of comparison into my daily classroom routine
