A model is emerging

A very clear trend is that the issue of learning environment is an increasingly important issue for all involved in learning. But the learning environment must include more perspectives than the spatial and physical house. The psychosocial aspect is just as important and so is the digital environment.

Unfortunately, the fact remains that most people have the physical environment as the primary starting point when talking about the learning environment. It is like it is synonymous with furniture, lamps and paint on the walls, etc. And of course it's important, it's no question about it. But equally important is the course to include psychosocial aspects and methods for learning in itself. The first is namely dependent on the other in a synchronized dance.

Our project is now in a phase where we are trying to find/create a smart model that helps us understand how we address the fact that the learning environment contributes greatly to students' increased learning without questioning the teacher's future role. The teacher's roll,  in our world, will be even more important and even more powerful with consistent support of the learning environment.

If you have ideas or concerns about this area do not hesitate to contact us.
