Abstract

Cardboard architecture Early learning experiences after COVID-19 pandemic Pandemic school closure Physical environment Stimulus shelters Student engagement
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to protracted school closures around the globe. As students transition back to the classroom, educators have grappled with how to ensure that classroom environments are not only sanitary, but also supportive in aiding children as they transition back to in-person learning. This chapter explores research on the utilization of cardboard architecture designed to aid in enabling children’s collaborations with one another and with their teachers, in the weeks following school re-opening in select schools in Australia.
