In the lecture/experimentation rooms, the teaching method determines the setting, rather than that the setting determining the teaching method. Tables and chairs, standing tables, or no furniture at all, everything is possible. There is also a variety of equipment and hardware available, such as interactive whiteboards and observation cameras.
The lecture/experimentation rooms of the TLL are part of the Future Learning Spaces of the Utrecht University.
