So, my major question:
How does the past provide us with a precedent of space for educational purposes?
Some subquestions:
- What were the movtivating factors behind classroom construction?
- In what environments did these classrooms exist and under what economical pretenses.
- How can these precedents be used towards a new "space"
- Moreover, should these precedents be re-used.
Reading Materials:
For the Class:
- Shouting Won't Grow Dendrites: 20 Techniques for Managing a Brain Compatible
Classroom
- The Inclusive Classroom: Strategies for Effective Instruction
Para Me:
- The One-Room Schoolhouse
- The Problems of American Education
- Schoolhouse in the Woods
- www.sites.onlinemac.com/kcampbell/One_Room_Schoolhouses.htm
*This is a historical list of one-room schoolhouses
- edsitement.neh.gov/view_lesson_plan.asp?id=319
*This compares experience of attending a one room schoolhouse versus going to
school today.
