TheSquare Ep #42 Design Lessons From Teachers

Few professions were upended by the past two years as much as teachers.  Met with immediate school shutdowns, technology inequities, and learning gaps, teachers must also navigate the more enduring changes in how we learn and work. 

 

While schools have been good at prioritizing improved student experience and performance, they have been, generally speaking, less successful in providing spaces that support those responsible for delivering those outcomes. Corgan’s 2022 study, Design Lessons from Teachers, surveys 1000 K-12 teachers from across the nation to uncover the challenges and opportunities in school design to better support teacher performance, satisfaction, recruitment, and ultimately, student outcomes. 

 

Since the firm’s original study on teacher pain points and preferences in 2019, surveyed teachers cited limited learning environments as a primary source of stress—35%, up by 10% while also citing its increased importance in their ability to be a good teacher—71% compared to 38% in 2019.

 

So, what do teachers need? Sangeetha Karthik, Associate Principal in Corgan’s Education practice and Melissa Hoelting, Design Research Specialist at Hugo, Corgan’s Research and Development team, share the top five lessons from teachers and what they need from school design.
