EED 8th Classroom

EED (English Education Department) 8th Classroom is a very uncomfortable place for study. Because of many facilities in the classroom are broken or not working well. So some facilities that supposed to support the learning process not working like some of broken chairs pilled in the back of the class and it makes the class looks messy and some of the chair are broken. There is many windows are broken, some we can’t open and some others can’t close because of the window never get repair. The curtains are dirty and out of order like. Besides that walls are dirty with meaningless drawing, writing and stains. Even there plugs on the floor are not working, so we can’t use it like how it supposed to, such as for charging our laptop or some other things that need plugs. Besides those problem, ACs on the class are not working, one of them even become a place for bird to make nest. Beside those condition of broken facilities, outside the class also can be so noisy. First, on the other side of the building where the class is located there is a busy road, so we could hear the sound of vehicles moving very clearly and it disturb our study especially when we need to listen to an important lecture. Second, there are many benches outside the 8th class where some students usually wait for their classes and the sound of their chatting sometimes are very loud. Outside of the class are very crowded and it also disturb our focus when studying. The reason why it is very crowded no other because the 8th class is near a space, a place where students usually wait for their classes, so many students usually flock around there. Besides, it is also near the toilets and HMJ room. In the end, broken facilities, noises around the class and the crowded outside the class are the causes that make us feel very disturbed during our lessons. If there is no action to improve the class condition we afraid it will affects our study performance.
