Stacey NelsonI found this to be interesting. This article talks about what the ideal classroom should be to accommodate 21st century learning. It sounds amazing! But my thought was as I was reading is how would schools accomplish this with the buildings they have? How would it be paid for? Schools are cutting back tremendously as it is. Hopefully we will see this change soon!

The more I have considered teaching and learning in the 21st Century, the more convinced I am that our teaching and learning spaces must change to reflect the paradigm shift we are seeing with 21st Century learners and educator.

19th and 20th century classroom collage
Classrooms have improved since the 19th Century, but essentially they are designed for the same traditional mode of teaching. These classrooms are:
-
- ogy
- rigid in design often unable to be adapted for any other purpose
- individual focused rather than group focused
-
- 21st Century Learners are:
- Technology literate and adept
- Media savvy
- Flexible and dynamic
- multitasking
- communicators and collaborators
- interactive and networked
- reflective and critical
- instant
- creative and adaptive
- student centric, life long learners & anywhere anytime learners
- have Multimodal learning styles
-
Access to technology and media:
-
Classroom design:
-
designed to enable group collaboration
-
Classrooms must be able to adapt to different needs of the classroom - space for the students to work quietly and reflectively; space to operate in small groups discussing and debating; space to meet collectively to report, discuss, plan and teach.
-
Display spaces:
-
So what is the classroom of tomorrow like?
I feel that these spaces will probably be multiple rooms within the one learning space -
This is not going to be cheap. Larger spaces, more of them with better facilities and resources, connectivity and capacity. This is going to require a quantum change in classroom design. There are questions to be asked like can some facilities be shared - small breakout rooms between classes etc.
-
Fundamentally there must also be a change in the direction of teaching too. If such a facility was available in your school, who could use this? Would your teachers be able to adapt to this space or would they revert to a more traditional mode of instruction.
