Active Learning…Space: The Final Frontier

In this session of Silver Lining for Learning (SLL) will discuss innovative learning spaces that are being created, augmented, evaluated, and reimagined in higher education to better understand human learning as bounded by the confines of our gravitational structure. For more than a decade, Indiana University (IU), has been forefront of the learning space field with dozens of experimentations with different formal and informal learning space arrangements for interactive, hands-on, digitally-rich, and highly engaging active learning as part of the Mosaic initiative that began under the leadership of Stacy Morrone and is now led by Tracey Birdwell. Countless innovative pedagogies for flexible learning environments have been experimented with and researched at Indiana University, and IU faculty and staff have held unique brainstorming sessions, captivating immersive experiences, and much more with the goal of enhancing teaching and learning with technology.
