Jisc - Designing spaces for effective learning: a guide to 21st century learning space ... - 1 views

  •  
    Learning is changing in the 21st century. Technologies used in learning, such as interactive whiteboards, personal learning environments, wireless networks and mobile devices, plus the internet and high-quality digital learning resources - and the ability to access many of these from home and the workplace - are altering the experiences and aspirations of learners. Increasing investment in estate and learning technologies, combined with the need for more cost-effective space utilisation, is making it increasingly important for senior managers and decision-makers to keep abreast of new thinking about the design of technology-rich learning spaces. Understanding what makes an effective design is important. The best are likely to assist all within the institution to work more productively and to produce learners who are confident, adaptable, independent and inspired to learn. In short the design of our learning spaces should become a physical representation of the institution's vision and strategy for learning - responsive, inclusive, and supportive of attainment by all.
