But it does not follow that
“all experiences are genuinely or equally educative”
(John Dewey 1938)
Designing Learning
Cultural changes in education include shifts from
teaching to learning scarcity to abundance
Spectator/consumer to producers of knowledge1:1 to 1 : many to many : many
E-learning to D-Learning

Designing Learning
Design is one of the engines of innovation, generated through perpetual exchange and the interchange and accretion of collective wisdom, ideas, knowledge, skills
and materials.
Balancing contingencies of time, space and place, design offers moments of convergence, of memorable clarity and sense-making in a world constantly in flux.

Designing is distinguished from problem solving because :
it reflects on history embraces the present
andlooks to the future – it is prospective
it is fundamentally human
Designing Learning
Designing brings together:
skill, experience, knowledge, wisdom,mind and body
It transcends disciplinary boundaries it is transformative
It is a sophisticated form of learning

Designing Learning
Our challenge: is to understand and design places and spaces of
learning and to choreograph their occupation
Place : as stable, bounded and fixed
Space : as practiced place – created in time through action
Designing Learning
Our challenge: is to re-conceive spaces of learning and their
relationships one to another
Personal places and spaces Physical places and spacesDigital places and spaces
and the shape of our universities

“Accommodation Planning colleagues here in Estates & FacilitiesManagement advised us that the normal provision within pooledrooms consists of a projector, screen and a whiteboard.”

Our challenge is:
sustaining conversations
and adding a
“D” to the “E” of Learning
