2. Explain the importance of layout planning for everyday life. How has poor layout planning affected your life?
It has caused me to expend time and energy for extra movements within my home or at the university. For example, I have taught in a classroom where the computer is in a structure in the corner of the front of the room. The table extended part of the way across the front of the room. I often lectured using PowerPoint. So I needed to keep walking back and forth from being close to the students to the mouse to be able to change the slide. I have now compensated for this problem by using a remote mouse. In addition, the screen covered the entire whiteboard, thus making it impossible to write on the board and have a slide or overhead projected on the screen at the same time.
