Innovative Learning Environments offers a comprehensive conceptual and theoretical toolkit to support thorough investigations of transformative, innovative, and non-traditional learning spaces in schools. Addressing a gap in existing research, entries present clear and relevant concepts and theories that are valuable for practical application.
Contributions from leading scholars in Learning Environments research illustrate how these concepts and theories enhance practice within compulsory schooling. These innovative nexuses of design and pedagogy are often implemented in new school constructions and the redevelopment of existing schools.
This concise yet comprehensive volume is invaluable for both newcomers and experienced practitioners, scholars, or designers in the field of Learning Environments. By focusing on pedagogy and design, Innovative Learning Environments elucidates the origins and purposes of the spatial turn and its impact on learning.
