Flexible Learning

Grouping is based on student needs, interests, and/or specific learning targets and enables timely, differentiated support; occurs at both the individual teacher level (within a given classroom) as well as across a professional learning community (across a group of teachers who share responsibility for cohort of students)

• Flexible Learning Environment

• Flexible Spaces

• Flexible grouping

• Pathfinder

contains an open plan with the ability for separate classrooms.

• Space Type A (Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type B (Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type C (Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type D (Imms, et. al.)

specific locations (usually within or across classrooms) that support a wide range of learning activities and modes of learning as well as the grouping of students in different configurations like the whole class, small groups, and partnerships

• Flexible learning spaces

• Flexible learning environment

• Individual Spacial changes

• Flexible grouping

contains traditional classrooms with flexible walls and shared breakout space

• Space Type A(Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type B (Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type C (Imms, et. al.)

• Space Type D (Imms, et. al.)

such as color, flexibility, connection, light, and sound may be small; the combined impacts on learning are substantial.

• Flexible learning spaces

• Flexible learning environment

• individual spaces changes

• Mountaintops

responds to the needs of students and their learning goals; goes beyond physical space and furniture choices to include how time is used, how staff are used, and how students are grouped during learning activitieses

• Flexible spaces

• Caves

• Flexible Learning Environment

• Pathfinders

refers to specific learning communities where we have designed the space to be both investigative (what is working, what can we learn) and illustrative (demonstrates how we are thinking about space differently)

• Flexible Learning Environment

• Open Spaces

• Pathfinders

• Flexible spaces

contains traditional closed classrooms that are entered by a corridor.
