AC5 | The Pedagogy Behind Active Learning Spaces (Room Orange)

11 Jun 19
10:20 AM - 11:05 AM

Tracks: Active Classroom

As educational technologists evolve learning spaces to be flexible and interactive, the roles and responsibilities that learners and teachers have in these spaces is also changing. Whether it is a classroom or a library study space, educators need to create an engaging learning environment beyond the physical design of the space. The pedagogical approaches to supporting learning in an active space is very different from a lecture hall designed classroom. In this session you’ll explore the pedagogical approaches that can foster an inviting learning environment focused on engaging learners in the learning process and building the skills to be lifelong learners — skills that can also carry over into informal spaces where students build learning communities.
