The Impact of Classroom Indoor Space Design on Students’ Learning Quality

A classroom is an educational environment where teaching and intellectual engagement take place. It is designed specifically to integrate technological advances in education and improve student outcomes. This study examines the impact of various visual design elements on students’ academic performance across different indoor classroom configurations in Erbil. Furthermore, it aims to determine the most effective classroom design elements for optimizing educational results. The research employed a mixed-methods approach, integrating qualitative content analysis with illustrations, pictures, and graphs. The quantitative component comprises two methodologies: a researcher-developed closed-ended questionnaire along with ergonomic and visibility evaluations utilizing DepthMapX 10 simulation software. Research shows that Modularity, Visual diversity display, Legibility, Sightline, and easy Accessibility enhance the quality of learning. The study suggests that spatial and visual design elements can establish a dependable model, reinforcing the notion that classroom space design is a crucial component of the learning environment.
