GLOBAL RESEARCH CONSORTIUM– The Future of Learning Space Design
The University of Melbourne approached A4LE Europe in 2021 to join global research
consortium to identify and research next practice in global learning space design. This work follows on from the completion of the successful Innovative Learning Environments and Teacher Change Project completed in 2020 http://www.iletc.com.au/. A4le Europe and its members supported this project and hosted events throughout the project lifespan.
We were pleased with the response that the Leadership Team received from the requests to members sent out to request support and resource this first truly international project.
There are 19 International Teams involved in the project. The Association for Learning Environments Europe has established an Action Research Team to facilitate its approach to the project and promote knowledge sharing with all a4le European members in 2022.Our team is distinctive because it draws upon the range of multidisciplinary membership representing all those who are involved in the work of A4LE Europe.
Our organisational approach for the A4LE Action Research Team is made up of a Core Group and Advisory Team. These teams will work together to develop and disseminate the international project to all of our European Membership.
Core Team: Alastair Blyth, UOW, Michal Cohen, Walters and Cohen. Lene Jensby Lange, Autens, Terry White,A4le.
Advisory Team: Joss Boys, UCL, Emma Greenland, Anderson Acoutics, Murray Hudson, Gratnells, Sandra Jenkins, Autens, Peter Kristiansen, SWECO, Bhavini Padya, Planning Learning Spaces, Gary Spracklen, Prince of Wales School
