“…Some studies take the environmental perspective as the primary point of research, investigating to what extent school facilities are utilised appropriately (Zhang and Barrett, 2010), who also discuss the desk format classrooms use to a lesser extent), or to what extent overall 'good' or 'bad' behaviour is modified in varying levels of environmental comfort (Bernardi, 2006). Tibúrcio and Finch (2005) consider intelligent classroom spaces utilising new technology, and their impact on student interactions and teaching. They found new classroom designs featuring flexible movable furniture and modern technology resulted in lesson plans involving more student centred classes and more interactions between students and between students and teachers.…”

PurposeSeeks to find a method to analyse the impact of learning space on learning behaviour and, in particular, learning support, using the context of a university library.Design/methodology/approach A method was created based partially on pre/post occupancy evaluation methods used in other institutions, and partially on methods utilised by the Library on other occasions, gathering qualitative and quantitative data from staff observations, desk enquiries and student use. The method was tested at the University of Huddersfield Library and Computing Centre following extensive refurbishment. FindingsThe method overall was deemed successful, but was problematic due to lack of student engagement. Research limitations/implicationsResearch was conducted at one university only, so can be considered either a starting point for further research, or as a toolkit for other universities to utilize. Practical implicationsEnsuring full understanding and engagement of students via academics would increase potential of the method for understanding learning behaviours and utilisation of the library. Originality/valueAssessed what impact library usage and potentially newly observed learning behaviours made on library staff.

This study sought to assess the adequacy levels of some purpose-built hostels around the Wa campus of the UDS to meet the growing students' population in the Wa township. It sought to find out the qualitative adequacy levels of the accommodation provided by these private hostels and how the accommodation provided by the private sector adequately supports the educational needs and requirements of students. It also sought to identify the key housing attributes and services (facilities) whose improvement will enhance the level of satisfaction derived from these hostels. It was a post-occupancy evaluation based on survey questionnaires of 31 housing attributes. A five-point Likert scale was used in measuring the qualitative adequacy levels of five purpose-built hostels. The data was analysed with descriptive statistical techniques. Respondents found the hostels fairly adequate for academic purposes. No hostel was either very inadequate or very adequate. The building component attributes rated were mainly found to be adequate whiles the ancillary services needed by students were mostly found fairly adequate. Fire safety and internet services were found to be inadequate and contributed least to the overall adequacy of the hostels. The results suggest the need for regulation in the planning, design and construction of hostels in Wa since about one-half of the attributes used were generally rated fair and none found very adequate. Fire safety is critical in students housing due to the multitenant nature of hostels. This was however found inadequate; necessitating urgent attention to avert any future disaster.

“…School is the building that used for the teaching purposes, and classrooms are physical spaces that designed to support in person teaching and learning activities. There is a significant impact of the school building conditions on student achievement [4,5,6,7,8,9,10] because the built environment can influence users' behavior [11]. The relationship between schools building condition with student achievement was explained by Uline and Tschannen-Moran [9] who asserts that student from school with the better environment showed higher achievement.…”

Abstract. In providing a conducive learning environment for the student, the school building must be in good condition. This paper is evaluating the existing condition of primary school building in Sarawak, Malaysia. It focuses on building defects pattern for school building. The primary data collection is from the school building condition survey with involvement of 24 primary schools. The schools have been selected using simple random sampling and stratified sampling (of school age as the variable of selection). The reporting method is based on Condition Survey Protocol (CSP) 1 Matrix. Data analysis covers descriptive and inferential statistics. The analysis carried out found that the overall 4,725 defects have been identified. The building defect pattern is mainly on Ground Level of 3,176 defects, the highest number of defects components found on walls (798). 16.2% defects are cracks from 11 common defects and most of all the highest score of defects based on age of the building were the building in the range of 11 to 20 years.
