Active Learning Classrooms (ALCs) are distinguishable by their inclusion of dedicated media technologies, shared tables and wheeled chairs, organised to promote small-group interaction in larger classes. While discursively presented as a panacea to presumed problems of 'effective' pedagogy, a multimodal discourse analysis of the ALC highlights…
