This space provides a learning space for up to 30 students and one teacher. The room can be configured to support a variety of seating plans for individual, paired, small and medium learning groups to support the teacher’s learning and social planning. Depending on this plan and furniture available, there is some scope for the teacher to modify settings during a session, however, it more likely they will need to plan settings in advance to minimise disruptions for students.
The space is suitable for small group to whole class Visual Arts activities. Students can work independently or in small groups. The independent learning area can be equipped for activities requiring the use of information technologies. The room is designed as a general art space adjacent to the Visual Arts Workshop and supports dry art activities, as well as research, reflect, discussion, explicit teaching, and presentation activities. Work samples and learning resources can be displayed.
FURTHER OPPORTUNITIES
There is potential for an operable wall to an adjoining Visual Arts General Learning Space, and retraction of this operable wall would enable a collaborative learning and teaching model for two teachers to 40-60 students. Different arrangement of internal glazing could still provide direct line of sight vision between spaces while providing more wall space for display thus preventing the covering of glazing with notices and work samples. The inclusion of glass sliding doors between rooms would create ease of flow and greater access between learning spaces.
LEARNING IMPLICATIONS
Given the size of the rooms and the amount of furniture in this room consideration will need to be given to acoustic and spatial implications for learning activities planned. Visual Arts activities will be restricted to those that do not require access to a wet area.
Explore ideas, share and develop opinions, debate and decide.
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.
