Abstract | A study was conducted to assess classroom utilization at a university and to make recommendations to optimize the use of the space available. Seven steps were involved in the study: (1) preparing the inventory of space; (2) identifying the variables; (3) making assumptions for the study and changes to carry it out; (4) calculating mean numbers of classes in each classroom (credit or noncredit); (5) reallocating classrooms by department; (6) making recommendations for best use of classroom space; and (7) consulting with department heads about the recommendations. Data were from fall 1999. At least 17 classrooms were identified as under-used, and a detailed utilization map was developed to support the reallocation of space among departments. (SLD) |
