The key answer of exercise 2

Question 1

Arguments for:

• computer lab - can be considered cultural and it can be used for most things, e.g. watching and editing films, digital design; access to latest technology
• climbing wall – what most students would like
• auditorium – the largest proportion of students will benefit from using it
• cinema – students will not have to go far to watch a film; educational value of watching old films

Question 2

Arguments used against the computer lab:

• Most students already have access to a computer; already spend too much time looking at screens.

Drawbacks of other options:

• auditorium & art studio – they already have a space that they use for these purposes, though they are not perfect
• climbing wall – not cultural and their money has to be invested into a cultural project
• cinema – could only afford old movies, people like to watch movies on their computers these days

Question 3

• No. Two students will vote for the computer lab and one for the climbing wall.
