Synopsis
New spaces for new learning―not just in kindergartens, schools, and universities.
How well we learn is directly linked to where we learn.
In our digital age, an enormous amount of information is easily accessible. Against this background and because lecture-style teaching is no longer popular, knowledge is inevitably passed on differently now than in previous times. Today, the spaces in which we learn in various phases and situations throughout our lives have to look differently than those in the past in order to meet our current educational needs. New spaces promote learning by inspiring us, providing us with helpful tools, and facilitating opportunities for productive cooperation and the exchange of ideas within groups.
Learn for Life is a diverse collection of inspiring architecture and spaces that support progressive and collaborative models of acquiring knowledge. In addition to new interpretations of traditional places for learning including kindergartens, schools, universities, libraries, and educational centers, the book also features commercial buildings whose architectural innovation is redefining our understanding of what it means to develop professionally in offices, corporate headquarters, conference rooms, convention centers, and laboratories. Also included are more experimental projects such as flexible, informal, and temporary installations and exhibits that offer further perspectives on the rapidly evolving topic of how best to learn in the new millennium.
The examples presented in Learn for Life also show how color, light, and the organization of space as well as playful elements and surprises can be used to support learning.
In short, the work presented in this book makes clear that the creative use of architecture and interior design not only provides a new physical framework for acquiring knowledge, but also revitalizes and advances the process of learning as a whole.

Gebunden. Condition: Sehr gut. Gebraucht - Sehr gut Ungelesenes, vollständiges Exemplar; in sehr gutem Zustand, leichte Lagerspuren, als Mängelexemplar gekennzeichnet -Wie gut und wo wir lernen hängt unmittelbar zusammen.In unserem digitalen Zeitalter stellen Medien eine ungeheure Menge an Wissen zur Verfügung. Deren Vermittlung gestaltet sich zwangsläufig anders als früher, denn Frontalunterricht ist nicht mehr zeitgemäß. Die Räumlichkeiten, in denen wir in verschiedenen Alters- und Lebenssituationen lernen, müssen heutigen Anforderungen gerecht werden und sehen dadurch anders aus. Neue Lernorte fördern das Lernen, indem sie uns inspirieren und Hilfsmittel bereitstellen sowie neue Möglichkeiten für effektive Zusammenarbeit und den Austausch von Wissen in Gruppen eröffnen.Learn for Life versammelt ein breites Spektrum anregender Beispiele von Architektur und Räumlichkeiten, die progressive und kollaborative Lernmodelle unterstützen. Neben klassischen Orten für das Lernen wie Kindergärten, Schulen, Universitäten, Bibliotheken und Bildungszentren, die neu durchdacht sind, präsentiert das Buch auch kommerzielle Projekte, deren architektonische Innovation uns zu neuen Vorstellungen vom Arbeiten in Büros, Unternehmenszentralen, Konferenzzimmern, Tagungsräumen und Laboren führt. Diese werden durch experimentellere Projekte wie flexible, informelle und temporäre Installationen und Ausstellungen ergänzt, die weitere Aspekte des sich rasant entwickelnden Bereichs Lernen im neuen Millennium aufdecken.Die Beispiele in Learn for Life zeigen auch, wie man Farben, Beleuchtung und Raumordnung sowie Spielelemente und Überraschungsmomente kreativ einsetzen kann, um Lernziele zu erreichen. Die Ergebnisse machen deutlich, dass der kreative Einsatz von Architektur und Interior Design der Wissensvermittlung nicht nur einen neuen physischen Rahmen gibt, sondern auch den Lernprozess insgesamt beleben und zeitgemäß voranbringen kann. 288 pp. Englisch.
