The Benefits of Good Acoustics In Education Buildings

Good acoustics in education buildings have numerous benefits that can positively impact student learning, teacher instruction, and overall school performance.

Improved speech intelligibility

Good acoustics make it easier for students to hear and understand what their teachers are saying, which can lead to increased comprehension, participation, and engagement in the learning process.

Poor acoustics can create distractions from outside noise, reverberation, echoes, and other sources that can interfere with learning. Good acoustics reduce these distractions and improve focus and attention in the classroom.

Better communication

Good acoustics also enhance communication between students and teachers. Teachers can communicate more effectively, and students can respond with greater ease, leading to better classroom dynamics and more effective learning.

Improved behaviour

Research has shown that good acoustics can also lead to improved behaviour in students. Students who are able to hear and understand their teachers are less likely to become frustrated, disengaged, or disruptive in the classroom.

Enhanced learning outcomes

The benefits of good acoustics in education buildings can lead to enhanced learning outcomes. Students who are more engaged, focused, and attentive are likely to achieve better grades, perform better on tests, and feel more confident and motivated in their studies.

Health and well-being

Good acoustics can also have positive impacts on student health and well-being. Reduced noise levels can help to minimise stress and anxiety, which can have a positive effect on mental and emotional health.

In conclusion, the benefits of good acoustics in education buildings are evident. By creating a better learning environment free from distractions and noise, students can better focus, communicate, and learn, leading to better educational outcomes and enhancing overall well-being.

Collaborating with First Nations Artists to Create Architectural Storytelling

At Decor Systems, we believe that architecture has the power to tell stories — none more powerful than those connected to Country. For architects looking to design with Country in mind, our Contours of Country range offers a meaningful and tangible way to embed cultural narratives into the built environment. This range is the result of ongoing collaborations with four incredible First Nations artists: Jenna Lee, Keisha Leon, Toby Bishop, and Racheal Sarra. Each artist brings a unique perspective and deep cultural insight, with every design in the range telling a distinct story rooted in Country, identity, and heritage. Through this collaboration, Contours of Country was born — an award-winning collection of acoustic panels that speak to the spirit of this land now called Australia. Importantly, 15% of every sale goes directly back to the artist, ensuring that the value of Indigenous knowledge and creativity is recognised and respected.
