Developing an Acoustic School Design: Steps to Improve Hearing and Listening at Schools
Previous research has demonstrated the considerable influence of acoustics on learning and acquisition of knowledge, on social behavior and on the psychic condition of pupils and teachers. This paper describes an approach to an acoustic school design, which includes the improvement of the acoustic conditions of classrooms as well as of the social conditions. Various measures were developed and explored within the project “GanzOhrSein” by the educational department of the Ludwig-Maximilians-University of Munich. The conclusion is drawn, that it is not enough to improve the room-acoustic measures to contribute to an atmosphere in which listening and in consequence learning is facilitated. A school design should combine technical measures with educational activities to support listening at schools and so contribute to improve individual learning conditions and to diminish stress on students and teachers.
