Looking Forward Alyson Dacey 'Decisions based on forensic examination of the past give us what we've always had'. The buildings we design now will shape learning and teaching for the next century so it is essential that we look to the future. http://www.jiscinfonet.ac.uk/infokits/learning-spacedesign/anticipation Flexible Rooms at Yale • The need to increase room/resource utilisation • Reflect different learning preferences • Reflect different teaching preferences • Collaboration and Reflection • Learning “outside” of the classroom The Process... • • • • • Representation from all institutional perspectives Learner Input Blue Sky v Reality The design challenge Discussion http://www.flickr.com/photos/rscwales/5392939760/i n/set-72157625791508411/ How and where do you learn best? • Visually via demonstration, workshops etc • I learn best with pictures and simplified instructions and I also work best when I’m in a group • I learn best in the classroom then if I have any questions I am able to ask. • Quiet.

What would you like to see in a flexible on-site learning space? What are the key ingredients to informal learning spaces – maybe on-site or off-site? http://www.flickr.com/photos/jiscinfonet/sets/72157600082659997/ In Summary...
