Elementary Group Collaboration Area with Crescent Tables

The Need for Interactive Lecture Classrooms

The interactive lecture classroom aims to keep students engaged with lesson material by combining traditional lectures with breakout periods. Students engage directly through collaborative discussions, brainstorming sessions, and independent assignments. Tables should be arranged for easy movement and turning to form small groups. A spacious work surface like a wide desktop or activity table assists teachers with class-wide demonstrations. Storage units keep student devices and project materials secure and organized.

What Makes a Great Interactive Lecture Classroom?

For Students

The interactive lecture classroom should provide personalized space for students with storage for books and devices. Tables should be arranged so all students can easily view the teacher during presentations. Workstations should move easily into small group formations, with seating that's both durable and comfortable for extended periods.

For Teachers

The classroom should facilitate class-wide presentations with large writing surfaces and tools like projectors and interactive whiteboards. Walkways between tables allow teachers to move around during lectures and observe independent work. Tables should be quickly rearranged for small group activities.

For Administrators

The interactive lecture classroom should be arranged and furnished to align with the vision for that space. All products must be available when needed with correct, on-time delivery and quick, efficient installations.
