Abstract

Through this study, the important issues for planning open-plan learning environment were summarized as follows:<br>1. Teachers are satisfied with ‘open space’ for various learning style and they want to use open spaces more conveniently.<br>2. Teachers recognize advantage of open-plan learning environment in terms of learning effects and psychological aspect. However, if the indoor environment such as acoustic condition has significant problems, teachers don't highly evaluate the open-plan.<br>3. Open-plan learning environments work properly in the cooperative teaching management system by each grade.<br>4. When student numbers exceeds the capacity of learning environment, it is difficult to manage a grade as a group. In this case, class activities are mainly managed by each class and the class uses open space as an extension of its classroom.<br>5. Teachers require the classrooms that can be both open and closed condition with appropriate acoustic performance for open-plan learning environment.
