This space is intended to have a wide range of possible uses ranging from PE, dance, drama, physical therapy, and communal gatherings. The room can be readily reconfigured using different furnishings for activities that include discussion, reading or storytelling; and explicit teaching and demonstrations. Minimal or no furniture allows space for students using mobility equipment adequate space to participate in therapy, and rehearsal and performance activities.
FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES
Providing an operable wall would allow the creation of alternative learning settings and integrate inside and outside environments.
LEARNING IMPLICATIONS

Ratings against the Design Criteria

All criteria regarding spatial layout, fit-out, visibility and acoustics can be met.

Most criteria regarding spatial layout, fit-out, visibility and acoustics can be met. Some consideration will need to be given to determine whether constraints on ease of use, group size or materials will compromise the learning outcomes.

Few of the criteria regarding spatial layout, fit-out, visibility and acoustics can be met. A lot of consideration will need to be given to determine how the constraints on ease of use, group size or materials can be overcome.

Very few of the criteria regarding spatial layout, fit-out, visibility and acoustics can be met. This space should only be used for this learning mode as a last resort.

This space is incapable of supporting this learning mode.

This learning process is not employed with this size group.
