Abstract |
This study focuses on the post-occupancy evaluation (POE) of “study cafe-style learning spaces” introduced in preparation for the full implementation of the high school credit system in 2025. The research examines student satisfaction, self-directed learning abilities, and school life satisfaction, aiming to provide foundational data for future space design. The major findings are as following. High satisfaction with convenience and accessibility.Low satisfaction with environmental factors like noise, temperature, ventilation, and air quality, with noise being the most critical issue. Students showed a strong preference for individual seating with privacy partitions at eye level.The study highlights that study cafe-style spaces positively correlate with self-directed learning abilities and school life satisfaction, suggesting their effectiveness in fostering future-oriented learning skills and improving the overall school experience. Recommendations include addressing noise control, optimizing partition height for thermal comfort, and prioritizing individual seating arrangements. These findings serve as a foundation for planning public study cafes as part of upcoming educational initiatives. |
