    TAKE 8 explores the intersection between architecture and education with a focus on Australia. Under the title of Learning Spaces, the editors have asked researchers and practitioners from both education and architecture to contribute their reflections on the relationship between learning and physical space. TAKE 8 Learning Spaces has grown out of an Australian Research Council Linkage Grant called Smart Green Schools. Both editors and many of the authors are contributors to that research as Chief Investigators, Industry Partners or PhD students.

    Smart Green Schools The Unofficial Overview
    Newton, C ; Hes, D ; Dovey, K ; Fisher, K ; Wilks, S ; Cleveland, B ; Woodman, K ; Newton, C ; Wilks, S (Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning, University of Melbourne, 2010)
    The Smart Green Schools project, an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Grant (2007-2010), investigated the influence of innovative and sustainable school building designs on middle school education in Victoria focussing on understanding the links between design, sustainability, pedagogy and Information Communication Technology (ICT) within 21st century learning spaces. The projects’ aims were both practical and theoretical. Practically, there was an urgent need for current and local data on school design to ensure effective spending of government funds on facilities that support learning. Theoretically, the research project aimed to advance thinking about how schools, as complex systems, engaged with contemporary design, curriculum, technological, and environmental issues.
