This lecture explores the impact of spatial configuration on teaching interactions in classrooms, analyzing seating arrangements and teacher movements. It delves into the relationship between classroom layout and teacher-student proximity, highlighting the importance of room accessibility and topological distances. The presentation discusses the potential accessibility of different classroom configurations and correlates it with measured effective proximity. Additionally, it examines the correlation between calculated accessibility and proximity, emphasizing the influence of geometrical constraints. The lecture also covers the cartography of teacher movements, revealing various classroom usage patterns and behaviors. It concludes with a discussion on learning activities and spatial needs, focusing on collaboration, motion, senses, functional issues, and leadership in educational spaces.
