Functional vs. "Pinterest-Perfect": Designing Inclusive and Calming Spaces

Coffee Stained EDU Podcast by Geneva Rodriguez

Episode notes

Building on Ep. 50 & 51, this episode breaks down how to design a calm, accessible classroom on a budget. Learn how to optimize traffic flow, set up low-cost re-regulation zones, and save wall space for co-created student work instead of store-bought posters.
