School Buildings
"Teacher-centred learning in front of a blackboard has served its time. Instead, many schools now teach in open learning landscapes with movement areas and more private spaces. Accordingly, the planning of school buildings faces the challenge of creating flexible room structures and new functional areas. In addition, environmental comfort and lighting as well as questions of energy efficiency and technology have become decisive. This book presents 20 forward-thinking school buildings. Specifically, participatory planning methods and innovative floor plans as well as sustainable design details are documented. All projects aim to positively influence everyday school life and to provide scope for new educational concepts."--Page 4 of cover.
