This research paper examines three distinct teaching methods—U-Style, V-Style, and Circle—and analyzes their impact on student participation, collaboration, and learning outcomes. The study involved 30 students enrolled in a Tamil degree program, with the seating arrangement used in a Tamil classical literature class. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were used to evaluate the impact of these seating styles. Data was collected through observation, tests, and student feedback. The findings suggest that cluster seating is particularly effective in creating a student-centered classroom. This setup promotes collaborative learning and improves student engagement and learning outcomes. The study emphasizes the importance of well-planned seating arrangements in the classroom. Using cluster seating can help create an active and cooperative learning environment, supporting the goals of modern education. © 2024 The Authors...
