Abstract: With the development of society and economy, people's demand for the quality of furniture and display design is constantly increasing. Display plays a crucial role in enhancing the atmosphere and mood of interior decoration, and is a key component of interior design. Furniture and display design is a discipline that studies the relationship between interior design and people, but its theory and practice are relatively lacking. With the improvement of productivity and people's living standards, people not only pursue practicality, but also beauty. Furniture and furnishings are in an upward and developing trend, playing an important role in our modern and contemporary design life. In this context, we need to conduct theoretical and practical research and sorting on the display of interior spaces in Chinese and foreign buildings, so as to apply them to practice. Such research has theoretical and practical significance. The main purpose of the study is to better cultivate students' abilities in furniture design and display design. When completing proposition training, students should understand the relationship between furniture design elements, display design components, design expression content and form in homework, and enhance their innovation ability and craftsmanship spirit. The research conclusion suggests that traditional Chinese culture, artistic accomplishment, ecological environment concepts should be integrated into the teaching design of the curriculum, in order to meet the needs of students' professional knowledge while combining practical teaching with industry university research integration. The curriculum reform of furniture and display courses in this study has achieved satisfied practical results.

Abstract: This paper reviews issues relating to the effects of noise on learners in the Foundation Phase. The qualitative summative evaluation was followed in the study. The semi structured interviews were conducted with 9 participants, which are 2 district officials, 3 Grade 1 educators, 1 class assistant, 2 principals, 1 head of department, and Grade 1 learners from the three mainstream schools in Bojanala District in the North West Province, South Africa. The methodology employed in this research emphasised the effect of the utilisation of the dynamic sound field amplified system (DSAS). The findings show that all participants have the experience of the background noise in the classrooms. This deterred affected educators to be audible and for learners to hear the educator clearly. The background noise, factors affecting speech intelligibility in the classroom; noise effects on academic and educator performance and the effects of the environmental noise were some of the factors mentioned as impediments to effective teaching and learning. The use of the DSAS was revered by educators and learners alike as improving teaching and learning due to the significant reduction of background noise in the classroom. The study concluded that after extensive review of national and international literature, there is a need for further research concerning mainly by outlining some current acoustic standards for classrooms.
