A case study was conducted on a representative sample of four multi-family housing sites in Nis, Serbia. Determining the interconnection between urban planning parameters and the realized quality of POS is one of the primary objectives that could lead to forming recommendations for future multi-family housing development, including more usable and sustainable POS in the current social and economic context. The models for improvement of POS quality and sustainability are defined as a research result.

Pedagogical Implications of the Concepts of the Classroom in Europe: The Key Historical Layers, Tendencies and Influential Lines

This paper examines the interdependence of pedagogical movements and classroom environment for the elementary education in the European historical context. The authors' analysis of historical trends in the development of pedagogical ideas and movements has identified two influential currents, in which implications related to the origins and final form of the highlighted school architecture in Europe have been analyzed. The key finding of this study is that, given the different socio-cultural circumstances, the level of development of the classroom in Europe is conditioned primarily by the continuity and quality of perception of pedagogical movements, as related to the appropriate environment in which the pedagogical process is to be implemented.

The obtained results indicated the advantages and limitations, both in application of the compact and the developed architectonic plan. On the basis of the comparative analysis of the determined functional implications, it was concluded that a compact architectonic plan of an elementary school is a design providing a wider range of qualitative potentials.
