My classroom is setup so that everyone is on the "front row" which makes classroom management easier for me as an instructor and our frequent class discussions are hopefully less intimidating to students because students are facing each other on the same level. Students are encouraged to express their opinions as long as the content is on the current topic and is classroom appropriate (which excludes derogatory terms such as 'stupid' or 'dumb' and any hateful comments or foul language).
