Future learning environment is a multi-user social collaboration platform

Le développement d’environnements d’apprentissage novateurs, qu’ils soient matériels ou virtuels, doit combiner des visions holistiques de la pédagogie, de l’architecture et de la technologie. Espaces d’apprentissage et technologie de l’éducation doivent s’interfacer de telle manière qu’il soit facile pour les étudiants et les enseignants d’interagir et de collaborer. La conception de ces environnements d’apprentissage passe par un processus de planification participative où les utilisateurs ont un rôle essentiel à jouer. Lors de son intervention, Pasi Mattila mettra l’accent sur le développement d’environnements d’apprentissage innovants, en particulier dans l’enseignement supérieur, en illustrant son propos grâce à la perspective finlandaise.
