Future Proof Your Learning Spaces

The international pandemic has shown us all that accommodations must be made for remote learning in the future. Up until now, that has meant that teachers must co-teach to students that are physically present while being on a Zoom call with students who are not in the physical classroom for whatever reason. There are better solutions, though- our experts will show you how to integrate technology in the classroom that gets remote learning a lot closer to the experience of actually sitting there. Everything is affected by the environment, from the way the camera that is pointed at the teacher is set up to whether or not they wear an internet-connected voice amplifier.

Connected Devices

Students as young as Pre-K are using tablets, Chromebooks, laptops, and desktops to learn, wherever they are. When you design a connected lesson plan, it’s portable and repeatable, it’s more interactive and serves to lift learning outcomes. Connected devices help students tap into the power of the Internet, which has changed education forever- allowing students to research, collaborate, learn and create.

Presentation Tools

With mask mandates in many areas for both teachers and students, the pandemic certainly hasn’t made classroom communication any more straightforward. A flat-screen video call doesn’t cut it anymore- use tools that place your remote students right in the classroom with you using a complete tech setup. Make sure they can hear you with internet-connected voice amplification solutions as well.

Purposeful Furniture

A modern, integrated learning space fosters both Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) and positive outcomes for all students. Instruction is evolving to be more student-directed, with the instructor as the facilitator. Why not give students the option to choose between different types of comfortable working spaces while still allowing instructors visibility into activities? Working in small groups and learning by doing is the order of the day.

Wellness Rooms

A Wellness Room can be an effective way to provide students and staff with opportunities to focus on self-care and developing healthy coping strategies while reducing stress and anxiety. Typically, the design of these spaces allows students and staff to experience a quiet atmosphere and have a chance to “reset.”

STS employs award-winning, working classroom teachers and educational consultants that will come to the site and explain to your instructors why things were chosen and laid out as they were and how to use the space functionally for optimal student outcomes. Close the loop with professional development for your instructors- the area will be more fully utilized when they understand the design decisions that went into it.
