ItemSystematic review of learning environments and student learning outcomesByers, T ; Mahat, M ; Liu, K ; Knock, A ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2018)To test the propositions made that there is currently a lack of substantive, empirical data on the purported claims that different spatial layouts affect student learning outcomes.

ItemDefining student deep learningMahat, M ; Bradbeer, C ; Byers, T ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2018)The ILETC team collectively set out to define the notion of student deep learning through a literature-based reflection about the issues central to our project. The aim was to map out a common research landscape that the large multidisiplinary research team could navigate across, as well as to frame the study and provide a scope to respond to the project’s key research question.

ItemDefining teacher mind framesMahat, M ; Bradbeer, C ; Byers, T ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2018)The ILETC team collectively set out to define the notion of teacher mind frames through a literature-based reflection about the issues central to our project. The aim was to map out a common research landscape that the large multidisiplinary research team could navigate across, as well as to frame the study and provide a scope to respond to the project’s key research question

ItemDefining innovative learning environmentsMahat, M ; Bradbeer, C ; Byers, T ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2018)The ILETC team collectively set out to define the concept of an innovative learning environment through a literature-based reflection about the issues central to our project. The aim was to map out a common research landscape that the large multidisiplinary research team could navigate across, as well as to frame the study and provide a scope to respond to the project’s key research question.

ItemChanging teacher practicesMahat, M ; Grocott, L ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2017)This workshop focused on examining what types of supports are required to enable teachers to undertake change in their practices. Activities involved participants visualising metaphors to help them describe the conditions in which changes in practice take place, as well as using these metaphors to describe the ideal system that would support a teacher adapting to a more innovative learning environment.

ItemTransition Journey MapsMahat, M ; Grocott, L ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2017)The aim of the workshop was to better understand the journey teachers go on when they transition to an innovative learning environment. Participants were involved in a ‘journey-map’ activity which encourages peer discussion around their formative early experiences, followed by individual reflections and perspectives on what they did, felt and thought when they transitioned into the new learning spaces. Because of the nature and focus of the workshop, we sought participants who had experience transitioning from a traditional space to a more innovative one.

ItemStudent Deep learning and the ILEMahat, M ; Grocott, L ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2017)The workshop in Christchurch focused on Deep Learning and ILEs. Participants worked in small groups to describe what students’ deep learning is and model the learning scenarios this takes place in. The workshop inspired an increased awareness of what deep learning is, and how learning spaces currently support or could better support deep learning.

ItemTeacher Mind frames and belief systemsMahat, M ; Bradbeer, C ; Byers, T ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2017)The workshop focused on teacher mind frames and belief systems. Participants worked in small groups to explore how teachers’ beliefs about learning shape their teaching. These small group discussions illustrate challenges other teachers face, what they are doing to overcome them, and provide an opportunity to discuss what teachers need to support their ideal teaching practice.

ItemILEs and teacher practiceMahat, M ; Grocott, L ; Imms, W (University of Melbourne, 2017)The workshop focused on participants visualizing the physical and experiential elements of the learning spaces they are in. Participants used craft materials to create elements of their learning space. Working in groups, participants also labelled and organized these physical and experiential elements on a spectrum of emotions, as well as discussed difficulties or negative aspects of these elements and ways to improve them. The workshop ended with a discussion of some of the challenges and possible solutions teachers face using these elements in their learning spaces.

ItemLearning Spaces in Australia and New ZealandImms, W ; Mahat, M ; Byers, T ; Murphy, D (University of Melbourne, 2017)Within the participating educational jurisdictions (Australian Capital Territory, Catholic Diocese of Parramatta, New South Wales, Queensland and New Zealand), we wanted to find out principals’ perceptions of (1) the types of learning spaces in their schools; (2) the types of teaching approaches observed in those spaces; (3) the degree to which teachers in those spaces utilised progressive ‘mind frames’; and (4) the degree to which students engaged in ‘deep’ as opposed to ‘’surface’ learning in those spaces.
