Rethinking Classroom Design

Reviews / Votes

By reading a book about classroom design-this book about classroom design-you have a chance to organize your teaching in a way that supports all of the other professional development and reading and twittering and reflection you do. -- Terry Heick, Director of TeachThought Improving the quality of classroom environments supports improvements in the quality of instruction. Finley and Wiggs give teachers and principals practical strategies for creating the classrooms we need today. -- Jeff Theus, principal of Ayden Middle School The physical layout of the classroom has a significant impact on teaching and learning; nevertheless, this essential component of instruction is often overlooked. This book provides teachers and administrators with the fundamental tools to immediately change the learning paradigm for all students. -- Patricia L. Hilliard, PhD, Director of STEM Accelerator, NC New Schools/Breakthrough Learning This is now my go-to guide for classroom design and organization. Thank you, Finley and Wiggs, for providing an accessible research-based tool that empowers educators to rethink student learning environments. -- Sonja McKay, M.Ed., NBCT, Teacher at The Exploris School
