# Photos of Mock-up of CLCL

We (Steven Weidner, ATC and David Schwartz, CS) built full-scale models of the proposed tables out of pink, 1" thick, construction styrofoam. The tables were placed inside a full-scale room so that we could experiment with different configurations.

The room was "taped" (as lines on the floor) to try different dimensions of the room. We experimented with 20 ft, 25 ft, and 30 ft sizes. Our studies showed that an ideal room size of 30 ft x 30 ft allows for maximum flexibility to hold 16 students with 2 facilitators. A 25 ft x 25 ft room will suffice and provide some flexibilty, whereas 20 ft x 20 ft allows for only one configuration and 12 students.

Some of the configurations are shown below. We are working on writing a full report that provides more details, results of the full range of confirgurations, and our complete set of recommendations based on this study.

| One of the many configurations we tested. Note the tape on the floor.
| One of the quarter-round tables, in front of which two students can work.
| Two quarter-round tables that form a quad, in front of which four students can work.

| The only allowable configuration for a 20' x 20' space. There is an "instructor station" that starts the circle of tables on the right. A 25' x 25' space allows for four quads and two stations (one for instructor and one for printer).
| One configuration that fits inside 25 ft x 25 ft.
