Do you want to use a Future Learning Space in semester 2 (2024-2025) or are you looking for a special location for learning activities in your class? Please contact fls@uu.nl or inform your faculty scheduling office which FLS you would like to use.

What is a Future Learning Space?

The standard (work)group spaces are becoming increasingly flexible, but sometimes your ideas for learning activities during your lessons do not fit in the available spaces. The layout of the room is not suitable for group work or during the learning activities you had thought of, you still run into limitations. Do you recognize this? Maybe a Future Learning Space is something for you! 

Future Learning Spaces are available for all UU-lecturers and have been developed to offer teachers and students the opportunity to experiment with the layout of the room. Various experimental spaces have been created in close collaboration with lecturers and students and new innovative spaces are in the pipeline! 

We have incredibly fun news, as we are developing an Outdoor Learning Space in the Botanic Gardens and hope to deliver it next year!
