Future Learning Spaces
Future Learning Initiative – Informal Learning Spaces
This interdisciplinary project examines the interaction between physical learning spaces and the university students that use those spaces. The project focus is on informal learning spaces across various learning settings. Research questions to be addressed include: What are the characteristics of informal learning spaces and what is good about them? How can the design of learning spaces facilitate active, social, and experiential learning?
