Video Recording of NMC Online Event on Learning Spaces Now Available

September 12, 2016 by Gary Price

A video recording of the New Media Consortium’s (NMC) Beyond the Horizon :: Learning Spaces online event was made available on YouTube earlier today. It was recorded on July 13th, 2016.
Description

New forms of teaching and learning require educational institutions to rethink how physical space is configured. Both formal and informal educational settings are increasingly designed to support more collaborative and project-based interactions with attention to greater mobility, flexibility, and multiple device usage.
In this one-hour online event, representatives from five organizations featured in the NMC Horizon Report: 2016 Higher Education Edition will share insights behind their innovative learning space designs and explore how this trend is fostering more active learning environments.
