Flexible learning spaces promote interactive learning experiences and dynamic teaching through a combination of mobile and/or reconfigurable furniture and a wide range of adaptable technologies. A single space may be configured to handle one or more teaching/learning strategies, including:
- multiple projection for advanced classroom presentations (including the ability to include students' work in the projections)
- collaborative small group breakout sessions
- traditional lecture/seminar based configurations
- project-based learning sessions focusing on student-developed content
- role-playing exercises
Example of flexible room configurations
The Link (on the lower level of Perkins Library) is a new teaching and learning center featuring several flexible classroom spaces. A single classroom can be reconfigured or adjusted to meet several different teaching and learning needs. The slideshow below shows four different possibilites in the Link's Classroom 4.
