Higher education is facing a renaissance in terms of its approaches to teaching and learning and the use of physical and virtual spaces.
Physical and Virtual Learning Spaces in Higher Education: Concepts for the Modern Learning Environment documents real-world experiences of innovators in higher education who have redesigned spaces for learning and teaching. The redefined spaces encompass a broader range of physical, virtual, formal, informal, blended, flexible, and time sensitive factors. (From the Publisher)
