WELCOME
Dear colleague,
Benjamin Franklin once said: “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, but
involve me and I learn”. With the dynamic changes of millennial learning behaviors
towards more interactive, collaborative and informal learning, the learning spaces
and environments of the future must also change, or risk losing enrolment and
retention of students. Educational institutes must focus on not simply being a
place to churn out degrees, but to engage with student experiences and groom
them for lifelong learning.
A holistic learning space of the future with the balanced amalgamation of pedagogy,
technology and spaces will significantly enhance student learning engagement and
learning outcomes, and ultimately foster increased student enrolment.
This evolution presents a variety of new challenges to address:
 How do you go about upgrading existing campuses and classrooms into
innovative learning spaces without major investment and overhaul?
 What are the practical strategies to encourage teaching faculties to innovate
their pedagogies in and outside of the classroom?
 How do you choose and apply the best technologies to design engaging and
interactive learning environments?
 How do you define and measure return on investment?
With this in mind, I am delighted to bring you the 2nd Annual Next Generation
Learning Spaces Asia 2016 (Singapore, 27th-28th September), a dynamic event
looking at bridging the gap between technology, pedagogy and design in creating
innovative learning spaces.
I invite you to explore our program, case studies and meet with top speakers at the
2nd Next Generation Learning Spaces Asia Summit. We hope you will join us in this
unique opportunity to share, engage and brainstorm with your colleagues on how
to inspire learners and support improved learning outcomes for the next generation
students with innovative learning spaces and digital environments.
I look forward to seeing you in September 2016.

11:20 “Design Matters?” – Understanding the Social
Practices Around School Designs to Successfully
Adopt Innovative School Buildings
Building a school of the future has been integrated
in the master plan of many educational institutions.
Yet between the vision for new school buildings
and the post-occupancy process lays various
inhibitors that deflect its initial purposes.
Going beyond simple post occupancy evaluation
(POE) research to loop into the social practices
around new learning spaces, this session will carefully
reveal how school buildings can successfully mediate
and shape the pedagogical process as intended.
Join us to identify and tackle the “pain points” that
lay in the way to achieve the institutional vision of
innovative learning spaces. Witness how the school’s
design, build and occupancy was a continuous and
successful process, to re-shape school buildings in
a way that rendered them more fit for the purposes of
the occupiers.
Professor of Education, Oxford University
(United Kingdom)
11:55 The School Without a Classroom: What does a
Truly Collaborative Learning Environment Look
and Feel Like?
You know it as one of the most modernized schools
in Europe; Ørestad Gymnasium - “The school without
a classroom” is recognized by more than its mere
unorthodox architecture, but also by its bold
pedagogical reform to promote innovation and the
millennium's shift to an ideas-based global economy.
The school is organized around a central staircase and
atrium, the boomerang-shaped floor plates spin and
shift like a camera shutter to create four distinct
learning zones – a novel interpretation of agility and
openness.
Spearheading the school’s learning space and
pedagogical development, principal Allan Kjær
Andersen will share how he came to optimize this
state-of-the-art campus to nourish the pedagogy,
with 100% digital technology and elaborate on the
do’s and don’ts of collaborative learning space.
 Change management: highlighting how
untraditional design impacts the teaching and
learning
 Spaces to nourish pedagogy: aiming at a flexible
and structured use of different learning
environments
 Creating an environment that necessitates and
emboldens student voices (even the “shy ones”)
 Eliminating the computer lab and decentralize
information and communication technologies (ICT)
to enrich the digital media environment

09:10 Blueprint for Tomorrow: Designing a Smart,
Agile School for Smart, Agile Kids
Today schools must be shaped not only by the
architects who design them, but also by the teachers
and students who occupy them. However, a majority
of the learning in schools is still pre-determined by a
design best suited for an industrial, mass-production
model, signaling also an obsolete pedagogy. A well-
designed school must move away from the rigidity
of the static building to the agility of the Learning
Building.

Being an architect winner for CEFPI MacConnell Award
who spearheads numerous innovative learning
buildings, Prakash Nair will walk you through the
strategies to modify the learning spaces, reshape
schools to represent true Learning Buildings and to
manifest new and more powerful philosophies of
learning. The presentation will also illustrate several
international case studies to provide specific and
immediately usable ideas to transform learning
environments.

a School's Learning Space
Continuing the success of the Green School Bali, John’s unfailing passion to build the
innovative schools has encouraged him to create the Living School Byron - a community
focused co-learning space.
Join us this session to immerse yourself in a learning space that is stimulating,
unconventional but surprisingly close to the hearts and minds of learning. Concrete
takeaways, inspiring ideas and in-depth interactive discussions are what you can extract
from this session.
 Leveraging the 4 living philosophies to navigate progression
 Utilizing the natural sustainable resources to promote a sense of beauty, wonder and
awe to captivate every parent and student
 Pedagogies to incubate entrepreneurship, and “skillset portfolios”
 IQ, EQ, PQ and XQ: Revamping assessments reports to measure students holistic
development
John Stewart
Creator, Living School, Byron (Australia)
14:25 Creating the Innovative Culture to Drive Innovative Teaching
The context for learning at the Northern Beaches Christian School inhabits three spaces
– the physical space, the virtual space and the cultural space. For embedding change
these three need to work together. It is not sufficient to create an open and shared
learning space, unless there is clarity on how cultural elements work, how the space is
used. Technology plays a pivotal role and the virtual classroom sits alongside the physical
space as students connect from their own devices through the school’s wifi network.
This session will highlight:
 Delving deeper than physical design: rethinking the way learning institutions look and feel
 Culture change: avoiding the default to a particular set of behaviors and initiating
the shift in mindset
 Shared spaces and cross-pollinating faculties
 Encouraging a collaborative culture between teachers and providing a connection
 Improving the dialogue between educators and architects

13:35 Reconfiguring Existing Infrastructure and Buildings to Ensure your Campus Is
Up-to-Date Without Major Investments and Overhauls
Universities are currently struggling with their existing infrastructure as they have a
large investment in legacy buildings (e.g. lecture theatres) that are seemingly unable to
accommodate the latest pedagogy. The renovation or construction will cost a fortune
and years to complete. So what’s the most cost-effective way to approach them?
Join us during this session to find out the can-dos on how universities can gradually
transform their existing infrastructure for the best learning outcomes within budget:
 Identifying new modes of learning
 Labeling unique themes for each reconfiguration project. Adding fun factors to
convey university continuous improvements
 Accelerating the reconfiguration of the flat floor spaces to make them more
collaborative
 Maximizing the use of engaging technologies and pedagogies to spur higher level of
discussion within the learning spaces
 Gathering feedback from small pilot programs to prepare for the bigger transformation.

14:10 Authentic Ownership of Spaces: Democratising Learning Spaces Using a Co-
creation Model
The Learning Hub opened its door on the University of Adelaide’s campus 4 years ago,
with students spending an extra 3-4 hours onsite thanks to this interactive and
innovative space. The university has now normalized the co-creation approach to the IT
environment as well as physical spaces.
 Embedding the student voice in the university design and structure; the role of the
Transforming Student Experience committee
 Translating marketing expertise into infrastructure projects
 Creating a buzz on campus to increase student experience and engagement
 Transcending the logic of co-creation into online environments

15:40 ‘Pedagogy Driving Change’ – How our Learning Spaces are Evolving in Response
to Changing Needs of Teachers and Learners – the Case at Tanglin Trust School
Over the past 5 years, Tanglin Trust School has seen an increasing focus on collaborative
learning – accelerated by the introduction of 1:1 personal devices. We feel that now we
are at a turning point; there is a critical mass of teachers who are ready to go further –
and we are setting up several ‘future classrooms’ across the school which could become
the blueprints for the ‘standard’ classroom of the Next Generation.
 How inflexible arrangements in the classrooms can be impediment to teaching and
learning?
 The early changes: breakout spaces and library places
 How ‘outside’ the classroom spaces have changed to encourage and enable more
independent/collaborative work
 Future Classroom Project: If we started with an empty room today, what would we
put in there? Finding the budget to ‘empty’ three classrooms and designing new
configurations: Design ideas and objectives, implementation, initial feedback from
teachers and students
John Ridley
Director of Learning,
Tanglin Trust School, (Singapore)
16:20 Revolutionizing the Mental Learning Spaces: Instilling Innovation and Inquiry-
Based Learning into the Daily Classroom Timetable
In the traditional “cell and bell” static timetable, the students are confined into
classroom (the cell) for continuous classes and waiting for the break time (the bell). This
emphasizes a passive and swamp mental learning space. Today, the class schedule must
change to help release the students’ freedom and innovation, by incorporating the
innovation space on a daily basis.
 Breaking the “cell and bell” – why the flexible learning schedule is so important for
students to boost their ownership of knowledge?
 Assimilating the flexibility into existing timetable: Embracing students’ ownership of
learning
 Catering personalized learning through “Book a Teacher” program
 Designing the physical spaces to augment 1:1 personalized learning session
 Facilitating learning by guiding questions-framing process to achieve optimal logical
thinking

Empowering Teachers as ChangeAgents in New
Learning Spaces
The American School of Bombay (ASB) under the
leadership of the superintendent Craig Johnson, who
received the AAIE Innovative Leadership Award in 2015,
demonstrates a successful breakawayfrom orthodox
teaching. The school’s transformation is driven bythe
belief that we are responsible for the growth and success
of all children. In order to embrace the learning needs
and differences of all learners, the identity of a teacher
and indeed what teaching means has to change. ASB has
shifted the identities-the roles of teachers to be change
agents that redefine the schooling experience to benefit
students’ growth.
Fiona Reynolds the school’s deputy head of school
will highlight the journeyto empower the teachers,
from spurring organic collaboration by redesigning
convenient cooperative spaces, aligning teacher comfort
levels in establishing a competency-based professional
development strategy, to stimulating Professional

11:40 Singapore ArtScience Museum's Perspectives
to Design an Enticing Learning Experience –
Transformational Insights for School's Learning
Design
Technologies have transformed education, making it
more fun and convenient but sometimes overwhelming.
What educators can learn from a museum designer
is how they enchant visitors by wisely handpicking
topnotch technologies that augment but not
complicate the learning experience. They place
customers' fun and memorable playing journey as top
priority. The end result is an enticing learning space that
delivers enjoyable and visceral learning journey that
makes students “stick” and remember.
ArtScience Museum explores the intersection of art,
science, culture and technology and this is perfectly
exemplified in its new exhibition, Future World:
Where Art Meets Science. The exhibition was
developed to create a digital universe where visitors
can interact with stunning digital artworks. A learning
journey through Future World encourages the
learners to ‘co-create’ with the artworks and explore
collaboratively with peers. Young visitors would hone
their own instinct for curiosity and wonder; interact
with technologies in an intuitive and playful way and
use their entire bodies in the learning process.
Associate Director for Programmes, Nina Ernst, will
provide an overview of the Museum’s educational work,
which focuses on hands-on experiences, open-ended
enquiry and an interdisciplinary approach to learning.

13:15 Beyond Open, Flexible Spaces that Promise All and Deliver Little. Foster
Contemporary Learning Environments Across Campus
The challenge of educating young people for the post-industrialized, globalized world
demands a transformation of traditional approaches to learning, teaching and the
social, virtual and physical environments. Contemporary learning environments support
and enable:
 Collaboration between students
 Collaboration between professionals
 Personalized learning, which requires flexible, responsive groupings of students
 Learner self regulation, self direction and self management
 Holistic, authentic learning— purposeful, personally significant, experiential projects
 Assessment in context—assessment ‘for’, ‘as’ and ‘of’ learning
 Connectedness—with community, virtually locally and globally, within and across subjects
 Seamless access to rich resources—digital, information, equipment, materials
 Learning anytime, anywhere, with anyone
The design process for creating effective learning environments has moved far beyond
simply removing walls, opening up spaces and moving some furniture around. It
involves more than creating a few new spaces with catchy names. It requires that
teachers, students and architects collaborate in designing integrated, purposeful
learning settings that enhance different learning processes and deliberately support the
development of learning capabilities.

Blended learning has been a buzz term that triggers interest of various universities leaders.
Students, however, have not fully recognized the diverse values of blended learning, viewing
it as just another “cool tool” in their coursework. If virtual is considered a space, students
learning experience in that space should be of high focus.
This session elaborates blended learning models, featuring elements of student control
over time, pace, path and / or place, allowing for more student-centred experiences, which
extend beyond the traditional learning spaces. In blended learning, collaboration also extends
beyond the four walls of the classroom.

WORKSHOP A: 08:30 – 11:00
Practical Strategies to Maximize Teacher
Effectiveness in New Student-Centered
Learning Spaces
Teachers around the world have built their practice around these
incontrovertible truths:
 Most of their school day will be spent in a classroom
 They will be teaching several same-age students at the same time,
often in groups as large as 25 – 35
 They will not routinely be collaborating with their peers
 They will be teaching single subjects
 A significant part of their work will involve direct instruction
Now, imagine a newly designed space within an existing school or in
a new school where NONE of the above statements are true. What if
teachers did not have to spend their day in a traditional classroom?
What if the number of students any teacher was working with could
vary throughout the school day? What if students did not have to be
grouped by age? What if hands-on student work dominated activities
in learning spaces as opposed to teacher instruction? What if teachers
worked in interdisciplinary teams and belonged to a small, manageable
community of no more than 125 students? What if true differentiation
and personalization is possible in school and what if schools could
simulate the creative, real-world experiences that students need to be
fully prepared for the new world into which they will graduate?
This workshop will offer practical strategies for teachers to adapt their
practice to maximize the benefits of new learning environments. These
spaces will accommodate many more learning modalities by breaking
down classroom-based schools into learning community-based schools.

Next Generation Learning Spaces Design 101
This workshop follows on from the presentation Beyond open, flexible spaces that promise all and deliver
little. Ideas are relatively easy to grasp. Translating ideas to practice is not so straightforward. How do we
design spaces that support students in learning how to think creatively and critically, to collaborate, to
engage with complex, unpredictable unfamiliar problems?
This hands-on workshop will engage you in active design processes for creating integrated purposeful
learning settings to support contemporary learning and teaching.
In this workshop you will learn how to:
 Identify categories of key learning activities and modes required for your students
 Consider the physical layout, visibility, acoustics, fit out and ICT requirements to support and enhance
each mode of learning
 Explore the operational factors that need to be considered in integrating spaces
 Develop the ‘soft systems’ - expectations and behaviours - required to work effectively in new spaces
 Discuss the professional development required to support teachers in using contemporary learning
environments

At Tanglin, we’ve decided that the best way to answer this question is to try out some different ideas by,
drawing on our experiences of how teaching and learning has been evolving across the school.
In May 2016, we identified 3 classrooms – 2 in the Senior School and 1 in the Junior School – to become
‘innovation spaces’. We have taken all the old furniture out of these rooms, including the teacher’s desk and
quite literally designed our ideal classrooms from a blank canvas.
On the site tour, you will be able to visit these classrooms (operational from August 2016) and hear first-hand
from the teachers how the designs are supporting learning. You will also have a general tour of campus to
highlight innovative breakout and library spaces as well as see the contrast with our traditional classrooms.
