 Where do teachers go when they're not teaching (assuming there's ever a time when they're not teaching)?

 What are those spaces called? The lounge? The break room? The office? Consider how the name of a space might send messages about what people do there. Is there a space you could rename the professional learning center, for example?

 Are those spaces for everyone, encouraging people to drift in and out as they need to, and to sit wherever they choose, or are people assigned to specific places?

 If teachers have dedicated offices or other places to go, how do they share those spaces? Is it by the grade level they teach? The subject? Is it random?

 Based on who shares a given space, what kinds of conversations are likely to occur? What kinds of conversations actually occur?

 How are adult spaces arranged? Are there individual desks? Small tables? How are these positioned relative to each other? Do teachers face one another?

 What resources are in those spaces? Is there a bookshelf with professional literature? A bulletin board with pictures or projects? A table where magazines the school subscribes to are laid out?

 How are those resources organized? Maintained? Kept up to date?

 What kinds of technology do teachers have access to? Does each teacher have a dedicated device or do they share?

 What digital tools encourage and enable colleagues to communicate with each other? Are all teachers trained in how to make full use of these tools? Who provides trainings? How often is training offered?
