Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The Impact of School Infrastructure on Learning: A Synthesis of the Evidence provides an excellent literature review of the resources that explore the areas of focus for improved student learning, particularly the aspiration for “accessible, well-built, child-centered, synergetic and fully realized learning environments.†? Written in a style which is both clear and accessible, it is a practical reference for senior government officials and professionals involved in the planning and design of educational facilities, as well as for educators and school leaders. --Yuri Belfali, Head of Division, Early Childhood and Schools, OECD Directorate for Education and Skills This is an important and welcome addition to the surprisingly small, evidence base on the impacts of school infrastructure given the capital investment involved. It will provide policy makers, practitioners, and those who are about to commission a new build with an important and comprehensive point of reference. The emphasis on safe and healthy spaces for teaching and learning is particularly welcome. --Harry Daniels, Professor of Education, Department of Education, Oxford University, UK This report offers a useful library of recent research to support the, connection between facility quality and student outcomes. At the same time, it also points to the unmet need for research to provide verifiable and reliable information on this connection. With such evidence, decisionmakers will be better positioned to accurately balance the allocation of limited resources among the multiple competing dimensions of school policy, including the construction and maintenance of the school facility. --David Lever, K-12 Facility Planner, Former Executive Director of the Interagency Committee on School Construction, Maryland Many planners and designers are seeking a succinct body of research defining both the issues surrounding the global planning of facilities as well as the educational outcomes based on the quality of the space provided. The authors have finally brought that body of evidence together in this well-structured report. The case for better educational facilities is clearly defined and resources are succinctly identified to stimulate the dialogue to come. We should all join this conversation to further the process of globally enhancing learning-environment quality! --David Schrader, AIA, Educational Facility Planner and Designer, Former Chairman of the Board of Directors, Association for Learning Environments (A4LE)

Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Buildings, School Grounds, and Their Improvement: Kansas, 1911 Many requests have come to this department from rural and village communities for information and suggestions relative to the construction of school buildings. The frequency of these inquiries is sufficient excuse for the present attempt to offer some advice and to give some illustrations based upon the conclusions of modern architects, and of those school authorities who have given much study to this important subject. However, a still stronger reason for the present attempt lies in the great number of school buildings in this state that represent no effort to comply with the modern demand for either architectural effect or economic or sanitary needs. The old type of the box schoolroom is, unhappily, too familiar to us all. The wonderful improvement that has taken place in public buildings in general, and in the homes of our land, finds but little counterpart in the average school. A trip through the rural districts of the state will convince the most doubting that the average schoolhouse and its grounds are bare, harsh, cheerless and unattractive. The child naturally loves the beautiful. In childhood the mind is impressionable and, whether it is realized or not, the discomforts, lack of harmony and beauty in the average school building unconsciously make a deep and lasting impression on his mind, tending to low ideals, and especially to the lack of care for the property of others. Many farmhouses of to-day are models of comfort and beauty. The buildings are often surrounded by orchards, well-kept groves, neat shrubbery and flower beds in the dooryards. Surely the time has arrived when the people of Kansas should interest themselves in school environment, and by well-directed efforts afford an opportunity to the child to study the beauties of nature at first hand. Location. "In selecting a site for a school building, the questions of drainage, convenience, beauty of surroundings and accessibility should have prime consideration. Select, if possible, some plat of ground slightly elevated, that the surface may be properly drained and kept as free as possible from mud.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book presents theoretical and practical research relating to the vast, publicly financed program for the construction of new schools and the reorganization of existing educational buildings in Italy. This transformative process aims to give old buildings a fresh identity, to ensure that facilities are compliant with the new educational and teaching models, and to improve both energy efficiency and structural safety with respect to seismic activity. The book is divided into three sections, the first of which focuses on the social role of the school as a civic building that can serve the needs of the community. Innovations in both design and construction processes are then analyzed, paying special attention to the Building Information Modeling (BIM) strategy as a tool for the integration of different disciplines. The final section is devoted to the built heritage and tools, technologies, and approaches for the upgrading of existing buildings so that they meet the new regulations on building performance. The book will be of interest to all who wish to learn about the latest insights into the challenges posed by, and the opportunities afforded by, a comprehensive school building and renovation program.
