Smart classrooms are basically the rooms wherein students come together in a shared space to construct, manipulate, and negotiate meaning around a canvas. This enables collaborative learning in the most effective manner. The environments become immersive learning happens on walls, desks, tables, and in conversations. The interactive surfaces become shared perceptual spaces where students discuss meaning and clarity and come to a collective understanding. When there is an environment with touch screens dedicated to creating opportunities for shared perceptual meaning, the students could dig down and construct knowledge in a deeper way. If you want students exchanging, collaborating, and talking synchronously in class then shared public spaces should be the primary focus of work. There are many techniques and options for setting up a smart classroom. Depending on the requirement and fund availability, the features and technology can be chosen. The requirements in a school would be less in terms of cost and technology as the school student would not be much well versed with the technological platforms. In this paper we have discussed about a smart class room that could provide an automated interactive learning environment for a modernized classroom of a school.

Shared Space

The aim of paper is a presentation an idea of shared space in the cities and results of implementation of this solution in the cities of Poland. The methodology of elaboration consisted of carrying out a review of the literature, comparing existing solutions and formulating conclusions regarding implementation. This trend, which has appeared over the past 50 years as a counterbalance to the pedestrianization of public spaces, is at the beginning of the 21st century experiencing its second youth and is being implemented in many areas in intensive urban development, especially in urban centers and areas of historic character. Shared space solutions are an integral way of shaping functions and forms of revitalized public spaces. These solutions contributes to improving the quality of public space and traffic safety, revitalizing social life, improving and reducing the environmental nuisance caused by traffic and finally created liveable city. Analyzes effectuated indicate, that in central areas of cities in Poland whose spatial arrangement is legally protected, the forms of shared spaces solutions are strongly influenced by strong conservation restrictions in these areas. This means the need  to respect existing historical conditions in shaping public spaces, as well as limited transformation possibilities. The Polish solutions of shared spaces presented in this paper of in their forms and quality do not differ from the standard functional solutions abroad. Solutions implemented in the Polish conditions, however, are more modest in terms of materials and implemented in a smaller number than is the case in Western European countries.

Once Dr. Bob Kizlik had said that learning, regardless of how it is defined, is ultimately the responsibility of the learner, not the teacher. Today problem based learning with appropriate use of ICTs has emerged to achieve the objectives of learning in a more effective manner since teaching-learning process has also become learner-centered now. We are moving towards the new techniques of quality teaching by using digital pedagogy, a new way of engaging students with the curriculum. One such instructional strategy of teaching is a flipped class room- a type of blended learning that reverses the traditional learning environment by delivering instructional content, often online, outside of the classroom. Present paper focuses on the significance of using digital pedagogy & flipped classroom in teaching-learning process, which changes homework activities into the classroom thereby, promotes sustainable learning since this is relevant and responsive to students’ needs.

The present study was conducted to explore the effect of smart classroom on learners’ performance in chemistry. This study was carried out on 71 senior five students selected randomly. After collecting data, t-test and linear regression analysis were used to analyze the data. Based on the research findings, it has been discovered that smart classroom motivated learners in teaching and learning organic chemistry. The results showed a significance difference between leaners taught through smart classroom and those not taught through smart classroom. These results also demonstrated that there is a positive effect of smart classroom on learners’ performance in chemistry. This indicated that an effort should be put in increasing adequate smart classrooms across the country to improve the teaching and learning process. Furthermore, other researchers should emphasize on the effect of smart classroom on other units in chemistry. In addition, educational stakeholders should emphasis on the use of smart classroom in instructional activities in education.

Recent progress in learning indicates the importance of students to be active in invents things rather than passive recipients. Smart Classrooms can make a noticeable change in how teachers can teach and learners can learn. The objective of the project presented in this paper is to propose a smart algorithm that provides a means of achieving a smart classroom environment in which most of the manual processes are automated and provides an efficient way of interconnecting multiple classes, thereby providing a unique way for information transfer. The proposed algorithm uses the Internet of Things to communicate between various classrooms and transmit/receive the required information. An embedded module installed in each classroom can collect information such as attendance detail, teacher’s location, and updates the information in the server for future use. These details are then used for some critical purposes, such as sending circulars, calling a particular teacher immediately to the office, etc

To reduce the resource and energy waste of colleges and universities more accurately and efficiently, this paper has developed a smart classroom data analysis system based on the Internet of Things, which realizes a variety of sensor information (temperature, humidity, smoke). Environmental parameters such as carbon dioxide concentration and light intensity), remote collection of equipment information, data storage and data analysis functions, and intelligent control of smart classrooms. Data analysis uses an improved LSTM model to predict energy consumption. The model uses LSTM and bidirectional LSTM and uses the ELU activation function instead of the sigmoid and tanh activation functions of the LSTM. Compared with the standard LSTM model and the LSTM model without the ELU activation function, the model improves the prediction accuracy, better avoid the gradient disappearance, and reduces the over-fitting. The system implementation results show that the system can effectively reduce school energy waste.
