Education in the 21st century is changing and has changed. We are moving from teacher-centered to learner-centered modes and andragogical techniques. We are experiencing a movement from: face-to-face to digital engagement, synchronous to asynchronous, individual to peer-to-peer learning. Technology has increased access and can enhance the learning experience.

As we build our teaching and learning capabilities in these areas, we also need to re-build and revision our current and future learning spaces. This is an opportunity to talk about the classroom of the future.

Please be part of the re-visioning of our physical classroom space. Bring your creativity to these town hall meetings and contribute your ideas to the future design of classroom spaces at Humber College.
