Design of classrooms in the new HEALTH building

• U240, U241, U250
• U320, U321, U322, U323, U324
• U360, U361, U362, U363
• U460, U461

• 6 team rooms with group seating, accommodating 42 students + 1 instructor in each room.
• 8 team rooms with row seating, accommodating 40 students + 1 instructor in each room.

The two layouts were chosen based on didactic considerations and capacity requirements.

In addition, the expected use of each room has influenced the seating arrangement.

For example:

• Row seating in rooms with streaming equipment.
• Row seating in the room closest to "iLab South" to allow for small presentations before and/or during skills training.
• Group seating in 6 out of 14 team rooms to promote and support active teaching and learning.

• Chalkboard.
• In the 11 rooms without streaming equipment: Clip microphones and speakers.
• In the 3 rooms with streaming equipment: Tracking camera, ceiling microphones (used by both students and teachers), and speakers.

Examples of layouts:

• Both rooms have group seating, accommodating 36 students + 1 teacher in each room.
• The rooms are equipped with fixed cabinets containing equipment specifically designed for skills training in the Clinical Skills Laboratory.
• This setup provides good conditions for group work during skills training.
• The rooms can also be used for other teaching, where they are particularly suitable for teaching that involves group work.

• 1 projector, screen (300x169).
• Audio/speakers.
• Chalkboard.
• Cabinets.

• Both rooms have a row arrangement, which accommodates 56 students in each room.
• The row arrangement was chosen based on didactic considerations and capacity needs.
• The room is well-suited for both lecture-style teaching and interactive presentation sessions.
• The even number of rows in the room promotes the possibility of group work, as students on every other row can easily turn around.

• Streaming equipment: Tracking camera, 2 x ceiling microphone, speakers.
• 1 projector, screen (300x169).
• Audio/speakers.
• Chalkboard.

Example of layout:

• Both rooms are furnished with a mix of row and group arrangements, accommodating 64 students in each room.
• The mixed layout is due, among other things, to the fixed column located in the center of each room, while also being chosen based on didactic considerations and capacity needs.
• The rooms can be used for lectures but are also ideal for group work, as the front rows can turn around and collaborate with the next row, while the other students are already placed in groups.

• 2 x projector, 2 x motorized screen (342x169).
• Chalkboard.
• In U221, the room without streaming equipment: Clip microphones and speakers.
• In U220, the room with streaming equipment: Tracking camera, ceiling microphones (used by both students and teachers) and speakers.

Examples of layout:

• The room has a flat floor and is furnished with round tables and a podium for the instructor.
• There is room for 160 students in the room.
• The round tables invite group work and discussions, facilitated by the instructor.
• The layout particularly encourages activity and feedback supported by the latest technology.

• Streaming equipment: Tracking camera, clip microphones for instructors, speakers.
• 2 x 165” LED screens.
• Audio/speakers.
• Wireless microphones for attendees (catchboxes, handheld).
• 9 mobile stations consisting of a wheeled stand with a screen that participants can connect to via HDMI. Ideal for group work, poster presentations, or other project work.
• 3 whiteboards on the wall under the screen.
• A number of mobile whiteboards.

Example of layout:

• The auditorium is arranged as a classic lecture hall with one row of seats on each level.
• There is room for 228 people + 2 wheelchair spaces.

• However, with two screens in the auditorium, there are also ample opportunities to incorporate digital elements that engage the students.

• Streaming equipment: Tracking camera, clip microphones for instructors, speakers.
• 2 x 165” LED screens.
• Chalkboards under the LED screens.
• Audio/speakers. 
• Wireless microphones for attendees (catchboxes, handheld).

Example of layout:

• The room is designed with two rows of chairs on each level, so that the front row on each level can turn around and do group work with those sitting on the back row.
• There is space for 189 people + 2 handicap seats.
• The room is particularly suitable for teaching methods such as "Team Based Learning" (TBL teaching) and other activities where students need to interact orally with each other.

• Streaming equipment: tracking camera, clip-on microphones for teachers, speakers.
• 2 x 165” LED screens.
• Chalkboards under the LED screens.
• Audio/speakers.
• Wireless microphones for audience members (catchboxes, handheld).

Example of layout:

• U310, U311, U312
