"Arranging Classroom Seating to Maximize Student Discussion," by Charles E. Cardwell, Assistant Professor of Philosophy, at Pellissippi State Technical Community College (TN), is a compelling description of a successful seating arrangement that the author finds far more conducive to student interaction than the more traditional plans in most college classrooms. Student discussion increases palpably and measurably.
