There are several で, but I assumed it as in the following 教室で勉強する。that indicates the locatoin.
教室で勉強する。教室では勉強する。Both mean I/we study in classroom.
but "では" can be used in comparison because of the function of "は" used in comparison.
So, when the above two sentences are followed by other sentence, as in :
教室で勉強する。しかし、校庭では運動する。"I/we study in classroom. However, I/we exercise in schoolyard." sounds natural.
but
教室で勉強する。しかし、校庭で運動する。sounds a little unnatural.
