The thesis is very strong and clearly states valid points that connect well with Freire’s essay.
I like the idea of smaller classes but if that’s not possible for bigger universities, I think you could come up with other ways to make a bigger class become more interactive so that learning occurs.

One positive- I like the idea of interaction within the smaller groups and being more interactive in discussion

One negative- the only problem with limiting class sizes and changing lecture rooms would be the decline in students being able to participate and decline in school population

I think your idea is good and may be beneficial to students. More students are likely to zone out In the 300 person lecture than a small classroom. I believe it could go into a little more detail on how it will help students, but the thesis is overall very good. I would say the second quote works better than the first, but it still applies. Overall very good.

Positive Reinforcement- smaller classrooms would definitely help students communicate more and be more involved in the lessons. It is a good idea to compare them to lecture halls.
Constructive criticism- what kinds of new ways of learning will students be able to create by using these resources?
The quotes chosen will be beneficial when writing about the space of education because the classrooms are set up so that students just get “filled” with information but by changing the classroom arrangements, students can be more involved in education.
