Educational environments have been stuck for far too long. For decades, we have settled for beige concrete boxes. Little natural sunlight and fresh air. Desks arranged in rows because it makes for the most efficient cleaning, rather than asking what makes for the most productive learning environment. Our libraries are boxes with walls lined with shelf after shelf of books, but the space often doesn’t encourage talking about them. We have heavy wooden tables that can’t be moved easily. Because the space is so immobile, we encourage sitting and passivity. This sort of environment keeps activity to a minimum, even if the adults don’t express it.
