Evaluation of Classroom Design in Terms of Foreign Language Learning

Abstract

Abstract The key factor of a successful design has to consider space awareness including experience and information of environment. In this context, design processes concern with physical and psychological needs of stakeholders such as employees, partners, customers, citizens, and users. The success of a school design is linked with its being functional for students and instructors towards respectful behaviour and willingness to contribute to the classroom community. This simple kind of evaluation study seeks to find main design problems in classrooms that affect language learning by using participant observations and individual interviews of students & instructors from School of Foreign Languages at Pamukkale University. Key research findings by the experiences of users show interactive teaching methods using technological equipment have a significant role in foreign langu age teaching and closely related to the classroom design.
