Classrooms of the Future (CoF) Initiative

The Teaching and Learning Commons 's Classroom of the Future initiative has been the leading project for FY19.  The output of this initiative is piloting one Flexible Learning Experiences (FLEx) classroom for each of the four schools, to identify several types that can be implemented campus wide based on the teaching and learning needs of the different schools.  Desired capabilities could include but not limited to:

  • A space that provides innovative and forward-thinking activities;
  • Ease of use and rearragement of the spaces (chairs, tables, choice in boards, projectors, technology) to fit different teaching styles; Sustainable; Video recording.
  • Futuristic capabilities to be considered in the future:  Virtual Reality, Distance Learning classroom.

Current Classroom Feedback

Current Classroom Feedback Form

 

The CoF team recognizes that teaching looks different from one class/room to another, and understanding what works and doesn’t work is an essential component in finding compatible solutions. Our goal is to make sure specific needs of the NPS teaching and learning community are identified and ensure the right tools are chosen to accomplish the job. We encourage all faculty and students to take a moment and fill out the CoF feedback form so that our team can identify capabilities and functionalities of classrooms that are not being met as well as classrooms that are preferred for innovative teaching.
