THE TRADITIONAL CLASSROOM
It may be observed that classrooms are usually arranged with neat columns and rows of student chairs, while the teacher stands in front of the classroom or sits behind his desk.
However, after spending so many minutes in lesson presentation and class management,
students can get restless and fidgety.

among themselves or simply stare away in lack of attention.
To prevent this situation, teachers often make students take time to work individually on
