The past 18 months have been especially challenging for teachers. While classroom design traditionally prioritizes developing and supporting students, Corgan is focusing on how design can better meet the needs of educators. As teachers adapt to changing teaching and learning modalities, navigate tight budgets, balance their own sense of safety, and more— how can design serve as a tool to drive the profession’s engagement, retention, recruitment, satisfaction, and ultimately student outcomes?

Tune in to this week’s episode of TheSquare Podcast, where we are on location at Walnut Springs Elementary School speaking with Melinda Gardner, Principal of Walnut Springs Elementary, and Erin Ortwein, Education Associate Architect at Corgan. Using Corgan research and a case study from Walnut Springs Elementary, we discuss the common workplace challenges for teachers and provide practical interventions that can better support their work and empathetically respond to their whole person.
