THE NEW LEARNING ENVIRONMENT:HYBRID DESIGNS FOR HYBRID LEARNINGBY DR KENN FISHER
• There is a need to design spaces which intentionally support student-centred learning strategies
– Understand the potential directions for future pedagogy
– Need to consider the full range of spaces for learning
– Students studying in formal and informal spaces
– Designing all spaces are conducive to promoting learning for all students
– Learning spaces should be rooted in an understanding of the ways in which students engage with the campus
– Research indicates that there is a significant variation by class year in the manner in which students use space
Need to align space with learning styles & student needs
