Spotlight on PHY235

Before renovations, PHY 235 was a tiered classroom, with one whiteboard and an instructor console clearly signalling the front of the room. Updates focused on:

• a fully flat floor to enable easy movement throughout the room,
• movable tables and chairs that can be reconfigured into pods of different sizes or rows,
• multiple whiteboards around the room to enable group work, 
• updated capacity for instructional technology, including networking and data
• updated lighting and additional power throughout the room to support instructional (and student-owned) technologies

PHY 235 was repurposed as an active learning classroom space, including: fixed tables for up to six students each with a shared workspace including a computer and large screen, power outlets, and a moveable whiteboard.
