Modern Learning Spaces

Modern Learning is all the talk at the moment, I've visited schools in Auckland and Wanaka which have been purpose built as Modern Learning Environments (MLE), and i've seen classrooms adapted to make them into MLE without the infrastructure change... I'm visiting one in Christchurch this week too, to see how they work their MLE.

One thing I hadn't really thought about was the students initial input into the process, here are two videos by Core Education which feature Anne Kenneally talking about pre turning her single cell classroom into a single cell MLE, and then how it was going once it had been set up.

It got me thinking about what I can do with my class next term, and about helping my students to learn and understand what helps them to learn best.
