1 LEARNING SPACES, iPads & Mobility A paradigm shift for education Don Orth, Ed.M Director of Technology, Hillbrook School, CA; www.hillbrook.org Tim Springer, Ph.D President, Hero Inc. Hero-Inc.com

2 About Hillbrook Coed, independent, progressive JK-8 school in a quiet neighborhood in the Silicon Valley; 14 acres of natural space 315 students 1:1 iPads in grades 5-8 Shared iPads and laptops all other grades Digital Arts lab; iLab Part of Vision 2015: Be Innovative Part of Motto: Take Risks (iPads, iLab) Mission: Hillbrook provides an extraordinary educational experience that fosters a love of learning in our students and helps them develop the knowledge, skills, and confidence to achieve their highest individual potential in school and in life. At Hillbrook, students are known, respected and valued as individuals and every day is a journey of self-discovery, imaginative thinking, creative problem solving, laughter, and friendship.

3 What got Hillbrook thinking about learning spaces? 1:1 iPads @ Hillbrook, August 2010 Change in teaching Change in learning Change in space requirements Change in resource requirements

4 Goals, Mobility, Space Christina Pak, 7/8 grade history teacher: thoughts on how students are using space and relationship to mobility/iPads/laptops

5 Keep in Mind... Environment impacts behavior. Learning behaviors are changing because of technology (the student nomad...) Flexible learning spaces are being designed and installed in universities and some schools. How does the learning space space affect student engagement?

6 Goals/Overview History/Research on environment & learning Observations about mobility and learning Case study - Hillbrook/Bretford/Hero iLab project Discussion

7 Thinking About Space Tim Springer: Raising the questions (from http://edu20.bretford.com/thought-leaders)http://edu20.bretford.com/thought-leader

8 What Kind of Spaces Creative Spaces brainstorm: students and teachers gathered to talk about possible creative spaces

9 Framing the question  What do we do with bricks and mortar when the classroom is in the cloud?  How can learning spaces change to support new technologies and new learning?  What can we do to increase agility in learning spaces?

10 Key Concepts from Research Learning is social Learning is mobile Learning is multi-modal : Not either/or; it’s both-and; cooperative, individual, guided, etc. Learning needs context Learning integrates technology

11 Conclusion - The Agile Learning Space So... Learning spaces must be agile adapt to different styles of both teaching and learning. Now and in the future easy to change to meet different needs at different times smart to accommodate technology - (power and data). engaging - encourage and enable exploration - both content and context (knowledge & space) different - non traditional. One size does not fit all

12 Learning Spaces as Social Places Learning Spaces Online

13 Mobility and Learning Mobility & Learning Mobility and Leaning Online

14 SHIFT TO MOBILITY

15 Hillbrook iLab Timeline Timeline 1:1 iPad pilot (Sept. 2010) Observations about mobility and 1:1 Consider computer lab redesign (May 2011) Connected with Bretford at ISTE (June 2011) Design Thinking @ Stanford (July 2011) Planning with Bretford and Hero (Aug. 2011) Removed computer lab (Aug. 2011) iPads 1:1 grades 5-8 (Aug. 2011) Installation of iLab 1.0 (Sept. 2011) Begin research (Oct. 2011)

16 Hillbrook iLab Observations about iPad 1:1 learning Teaching and learning shift Space use shift Untethered Decentralized Varied

17 Hillbrook iLab Current learning spaces How teachers use space

39 Hillbrook iLab Research Curriculum shift considerations o Design thinking and project-based o Flip teaching o Independent learning Compare o Ethnography--shift in learning culture in different spaces o Outcomes--affect on learning Understand o How iLab generalizes to other spaces, schools

40 To think about If you want to be an innovative, 21st century school that maximizes the technology and the shift in teacher and learning (from sage on the stage to collaboration; from content mastery to creative thinking and problem solving work); you have to think about environment. Learning is situated. Where and with whom you learn is as important as what and how.
