Three New Further Education Case Studies
From our latest research into learning spaces, we present good practice on designing for STEM, social learning and in-between spaces.
Case Study: STEM Spaces in Further Education
Exemplars took a blended approach to design, connecting STEM spaces to the rest of campus. We look at the importance of innovation from institutions.
Case Study: Social Learning Spaces in Further Education
Places that encourage learning through collaboration are important for developing and applying classroom learning. We look at these spaces.
Case Study: In-Between Spaces in Further Education
Some spaces create valuable exchanges and connections for educational buildings but defy convention. In-betwen spaces are key to a sense of community.
