Now available for booking: the Active Learning Space
Do you want your students to learn actively and collaboratively? Then the Active Learning Space (ALS) might be something for your teaching. This new teaching space in the Androclus building can be booked by all UU lecturers from 11 September 2024.
The Active Learning Space, developed by Future Learning Spaces, is a student-centred space, explicitly designed to allow students to actively engage in learning themselves. As a teacher, you are not 'sending' information, but rather supporting students who are themselves actively engaged in learning in groups. At five large group tables, arranged in a circle in the room, up to 30 students can work on an assignment or project. From the centre, the teacher can easily observe the learning process of all groups. An ALS is set up to best support active learning and can even be used on a limited hybrid basis. With an appropriate teaching design and learning activities aimed at active and collaborative learning, an ALS is used to its full potential.

Would you like to use this ALS (or one of the other FLS)? Or would you like to know more and/or need didactic guidance on how to use this space? Then email fls@uu.nl.
Future Learning Spaces is experimenting with new concepts to explore how the physical learning environment can contribute to personalised, intensive, flexible, activating and small-scale education. The Active Learning Space is one of the innovative teaching spaces developed by FLS. Prior to using these spaces, an orientation meeting is held to discuss whether your teaching is best suited to this space and what you need in terms of guidance. We also ask you to participate in evaluation of this space.
