Innovative learning environments: • adaptable spaces and ubiquitous resources & technologies, which can evolve and change to support transitions between different student-centred learning “In the real world….” Teachers’ perceptions of ILEs Mahat, Grocott & Imms. Technical Report 2, LEaRN 2017
Space as a component of pedagogical practice It is not the space that makes the difference, it is the way you use it.
OUR VISION EXTRAORDINARY LEARNING Driven by curiosity and challenge. Inspiring passion and confidence
Innovative learning environments • help students to be active, responsible participants in their own learning, placing the teacher as facilitator of learning for individuals rather than for the class as a whole
Inspiration to implementation Innovative learning design + innovative learning space = innovative learning environment
