INSTITUTIONAL FORUM: DESIGN FOR LEARNING

Evolution in Pedagogy and Physical Space

This course will discuss the principal changes in pedagogy and how it affects institutional design.

The evolution of pedagogy can be summarized by the following four principals: Learning is at its best CONSTRUCTIVIST, EXPERIENTIAL, CONNECTED, and LIFELONG AND INFORMAL.

Using these principals we will explore different case studies of contemporary institutional design (k-12 and higher education), and see how these changes in pedagogy affect the way students learn , teachers teach, and architects and designers design.
