Reading, Spelling, and Mathematics Achievement of Grade 2 Pupils in Open Plan and Architecturally Conventional Schools. Studies of Open Education No. 6.

Burnham, Brian

Scores on all three measures, plus the average attained scores on an academic ability test, were not significantly different between students in the two types of school buildings. (Author)
