 Seating ideas for Large Classroom 1.  12 ft ceiling height 2.  All classrooms need to have adequate room for students and faculty to move around. DO NOT CRAM EVERYONE IN! 3.  Motion sensor lighting to help energy use 4.  Security cameras for sensitive storage areas and labs 5.  Card swipe security for labs and classrooms with equipment stored in them 6.  10 - 12 total classrooms a.  2 large 45 max. b.  5 Standard rooms 25 max i.  Some rooms could be designated as specific course rooms ii. Examples: first aid, anatomy, etc and have storage area for their specific need equipment iii. 1 ITV capable classroom 1.  Contact C&T for current configuration of electronics c.  1 computer lab with 25 work stations + instructor area d.  1 Human Performance lab e.  1 Seminar room 25 max f.  1 open dance/movement room with suspended floor g.  1 open general purpose room (Large with carpet 15 ft ceiling) 7. Movable desks and independent chairs for group work (NO DESK CHAIR COMBOS) // a.   // Student Chairs; Student seats should comfortably accommodate the tallest and smallest persons. They should provide good ergonomics and have backs that allow for articulating movement. b.  // Recommended Seat Spacing: // i.   Moveable tables and chairs Moveable seats placed a minimum of 28” on center c.  Tables should be 36 - 40 inches apart to allow access between rows i.  Movable tables allow the class to rearrange seating into smaller groups if needed and should: ii. Have casters with a locking mechanism or be small enough to move easily iii. Have depth of 18 to 20 inches and a width of 28 to 30 inches per person. iv. Provide a workspace of about 4 square feet minimum v.  Can seat more than one student (seating for two works well) vi. Provide unobstructed knee clearance under the table that is at least 22 inches wide and at least 27 inches high 8.  Smart Technology in all rooms including Smart boards a.  SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system b.  52 inch LCD displays in multiple locations depending on room size c.  Classroom capture equipment for capturing lectures 9.  Wireless internet access 10.  Hard line internet access for users with no wireless cards 3-4 per room 11.  Cable TV connected to the computer 12.  Multiple electrical outlets along walls and in floors 13.  Natural lighting with shades 14.  Regular lighting is dimmable for projector use a.  Either hard switches or a dimming panel should be located near the entrance of the room and near the instructor’s podium. b.  Hard switches for dimmable lights should have sliders to control dimming c.  Dimmable fluorescent lights should be equipped with a quiet 1% dimming ballast i.  There are four possible lighting zones in most classrooms: 1.  Zone 1 – Main classroom lighting (student seating area) 2.  Zone 2 – White board 3.  Zone 3 – Projection area 4.  Zone 4 – Instructor Workstation ii. Zone 1 – Main Classroom Area: This zone services students and allows them to read and take notes in class. iii. Zone 2 – White Board: The first row of lights over the main white board area of the room should be switched separately from the rest of the room. iv. These lights should be far enough away from the surface to avoid having the light trapped above the board (this sometimes occurs in the case of sliding boards). It should be close enough to allow for proper illumination of the board. Proper illumination is defined as an average of 40 lumens across the surface of the board with no area dipping below 20 lumens. v.  Zone 3 – Projection area: While light bleed isn’t the problem it once was, it is still important that light not shine directly on a screen during projection. vi. Because of this, it is recommended that lights which shine directly on the screen be switched separately. They can be turned off during presentations, but turned on when maximum whiteboarding are needs to be illuminated vii. Zone 5 – Instructor Workstation: The light direction above the instructor workstation should be switched separately whenever possible to allow the instructor to see their materials while conducting a class with the rest of the lights off for projection. 15.  Built-in lockable, storage areas (room specific as needed) 16.  White boards in multiple areas in room 17.  Built in sound projection system for movies, computer, and faculty voice 18.  Locate above-ceiling mechanical equipment needing routine service in a location outside the classroom. This allows service without disrupting the class. 19.  Avoid spaces that are too deep. Deep spaces make it challenging for students in the last rows to communicate, hear and see the front of the room. Also, instructor space may be too narrow for screens and boards. 20.  Avoid creating seminar & conference rooms with long narrow tables that make it difficult for everyone to see each other. Long rooms typically make it difficult to see the projection screen and writing on boards. Rooms which are almost square or have a shape based on viewing angles are best. 21.  One ADA table per classroom 22.  Working clock 23.  Computer lab on wheels for use in classrooms other than fixed lab

Administration Storage Janitorial Bathrooms Extended Learning Spaces  Informal Interaction Spaces Hallways and corridors should be designed to provide thoughtful common spaces for social interaction. Theses spaces should be considered as networking and social areas, not just passageways. Small alcove spaces are well suited for conversations between two to four people. Larger spaces provide for interaction between groups of six or more. Along with comfortable seating it is important to provide communication devices such as:
 * 1) Reception area for administrative assistant
 * 2) Seating for visitors
 * 3) Conference room with seating for 16-20
 * 4) Smart Technology
 * 5) Computer, projector, laptop connections, speaker phone
 * 6) Dedicated workroom for copier and student workers

 * 2) Moveable furniture typically includes 4 to 5 comfortable soft-seating chairs with tablet arm.
 * 3) Small tables to hold a laptop with paperwork, or a wireless keyboard and mouse
 * 4) A wall or pole mounted plasma (or LCD display) offers real estate for display of project-based work or for group learning before and after class
 * 5) Flexible chairs and tables are on wheels, so students and faculty can move the furniture to best facilitate their activity.
 * 6) Conduit for data, power in walls and floor

 Fitness Center: All areas related to fitness for campus and specialized labs.
 * White boarding areas
 * Network for wireless service or data drop
 * Power located for convenient access
 * Proper lighting for reading and use of computers
 * Privacy should be designed into some areas, while others should be designed for social interaction, offering a place for individuals to “be seen”.
 * Provide soft seating, table (end or coffee tables), rugs, lamps and plants to make it a specific space, rather than an afterthought. Value the space.
