Whether you're in middle school, high school, university, or anything in between, it has never been a better time to be a student. Classroom designs around the globe are embracing smart and practical new technologies filled with bright ideas in their buildings, all geared toward making it easier for students to explore learning. It's not all just for show, either - a 2012 study by the Miami-Dade Public School Board showed that modern architecture school facilities using the active learning methods contribute to the well-being and academic performance of students and that teachers working in a more technologically-advanced environment are more likely to keep their jobs.
Here at Bored Panda, we think these ingenious upgrades and big ideas deserve some recognition, so we've put together a list of some of the most creative school hacks and cool things people have installed at their buildings.
Vote for the ones you'd most like to bring to your principal's desk, and add photos of your own school's smart creations below!
