Abstract
There are many different patterns of spatial organization and job settings within the computer classrooms. The organization of these spaces should be adapted to the working methods of the group. This article constitutes a description of a case study and a critical assessment of the working conditions in the existing classrooms. The conclusions presented in the summary should be used to make some changes in order to improve the status quo. Description of the suggested changes reflect the author’s many years of experience and interest in comparative literature studies.

Eduroam - educational roaming - an initiative which derives from European academic computer networks. The aim of the eduroam service is to provide a secure connection within the academic environment. Access to eduroam is co-created by all institutions that make use of it. Academic staff as well as students who take advantage of eduroam, with the alma mater’s consent, are able to gain access to the Internet on the premises of all the facilities associated with eduroam (both in Poland and abroad).

BMS – Building Management System, known as a building automation system (BAS), is a computer-based control system installed in buildings that controls and monitors the building’s mechanical and electrical equipment such as ventilation (HVAC), lighting, power systems, fire systems, and security systems.
