I have been inside some unique learning spaces recently. The Immersive Vision Theatre on the Plymouth University campus is one example of a unique learning space. The Theatre uses expensive Blade Network technology to provide the massive rendering power needed to create realistic and real-time visual effects.

This idea connects with my own recent comments on transliteracy - the ability to communicate ideas equally effectively, no matter what tools or technologies you use.

So what happens when we change the shape of the learning space? Change it again, and face the participants outwards instead, and what is the effect? Children sit on the floor and face the curved walls of the igloo to experience the full 360 degree effect of the colour, movement and sound. Unported License.

Students bring their personal devices into formal learning spaces, but institutional infrastructure sometimes fails to support the use these new technologies. Student voices, if heard and acted upon, could transform the learning spaces we use in formal education. What methods of learning do they prefer?

In other words, we enable digital and physical learning spaces in which they can freely explore ideas, argue with each other (and us) over concepts and theories and in so doing, develop their reasoning and thinking skills. In order to develop key critical thinking skills, learners need to be able to argue effectively.

Clearly innovation and creativity is not one dimensional. Some of the schools on the list are considered innovative because of the way they use their learning spaces, whilst others are vaunted because of their progressive pedagogical approaches. Finally, the design of the learning spaces is creative.

In this follow-on from one of my previous posts entitled Going to the wall , I'm going to highlight some of the features we plan to incorporate into our new experimental learning space (eXSpace) at Plymouth Institute of Education. This has the potential, if used effectively, to connect students, teachers, and devices together.

In my previous post I wrote that even though research shows lectures to be less than effective in helping students to learn, they still persist in higher education. Presenting large groups of students with a challenge or a problem is often effective in enabling individuals to tackle concepts or theories in an active manner.

One of the new skills that teachers will need to master in the future will be the ability to manage virtual learning spaces. Learning always takes place in the mind of the learner, but the formalised activities of learning have never been confined to the classroom. They are bounded by walls, rules and conventions.

John Sheffield , a new blogger, and one of our student teachers, was present for Davitt's keynote and noted: "he said 'Teach less so they learn more'. I think this is quite profound, that in effect we as teachers can get in the way of a child's progress. What will we learn from this? We don't know until we try. Are you with us?

Content is still very much king in schools, because 'content as curriculum' is easy and cost effective to deliver, and that is what most governments require and impose.

If they fail to plan properly for the future of our schools and education, their decisions will have a profound effect on our children, our grandchildren, and ultimately on our society.
