> We are in the process of designing a large facility for TBL. The facility
> would encompass the entire class (approx 220 students). Thus far the
> architects have come up with a room of rectangular proportions. We are
> worried about the possible lack of `inter-connectedness' (for want of a
> better phrase) of the teams in a rectangular room - can teams at one end
> (or one corner) of the room have difficulty feeling and being a part of
> the inter-team discussion? Is there any hard evidence that a room with a
> square design would help with `inter-connectedness' (we'll need to back up
> requests to the architects!)?
>
> I understand that many of us make TBL work in facilities that are
> non-ideal, but theoretically what room proportions would you have if
> money, practicalities etc were not issues?
>
> Many thanks in advance
