Tilley Hall - Room 205 Renovations

Tilley 205 was chosen (along with Tilley 404) to showcase how two identically-sized classrooms can be designed and used somewhat differently, and yet yield the same great results.

Encourage Active and Collaborative Learning

• Large tablet-arms to support laptops, notes, or other items.
• Improved acoustics through a dropped ceiling.

Student-Faculty Interaction

• Arced seating designed to increase line-of-sight between student and instructor.
• Arced seating also gives larger area at the front of the class for instructor to engage students.
• Instructor podium designed to reduce barriers between student and instructor, while providing sufficient workspace for instructor laptop, notes, or other teaching tools.

Enriching Educational Experiences

• Enhanced wireless capabilities in the room to provide a strong and reliable connection.
• Each seat has it's own power outlet.

Supportive Campus Environment

• Entire space was designed to provide a comfortable and livable space for teaching and learning.
• Comfortable seating, natural lighting through openable windows, new LED lighting that is controllable for maximum effect.
• UNB is committed to energy-efficiency and Tilley Hall has been recently retrofitted to meet this commitment.
