ZusammenfassungIm Kontext der Digitalisierung von Lehr- und Lernprozessen wird mit dem Beitrag das Konzept von Onlife Learning Spaces mit (a) der Veränderung von bestehenden physischen Orten und (b) der Aktivierung von neuen physischen Orten eingeführt. Anhand von Erkenntnissen in einem aktuellen Forschungsprojekt wird aufgezeigt, dass ein ganzheitliches Verständnis des Lernraums Hochschule weit über Fragen zur (Neu-)Gestaltung des Lernraums Campus hinausgeht. Mit dem Aspekt der Lernraumorganisation über Routen und Routinen werden die Notwendigkeit der Konzeption von querliegenden Lernarchitekturen und die damit einhergehenden Herausforderungen und Chancen für lebenslanges Lernen mit zeit- und ortsunabhängigen sowie organisationsübergreifenden Lernraumangeboten dargelegt.

Building on the assumption that the physical environment can have an influence on the creativity of designers and design students in particular, the aim of this paper is to provide theoretical propositions and evidences for this relationship. We develop various propositions about the influence of physical environments on creativity, based on eight expert interviews and supported by literature. A particular focus was given to the environments of design educational institutions. We present a summary of the main insights and visualize the developed propositions as a causal graph addressing how space influences creativity. These propositions can be regarded as a first step towards a theory of creativity-supporting learning environments and they can serve as a reference when designing or adjusting creative learning spaces.

The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the application of the Autism ASPECTSS™ Design Index in the Post-Occupancy Evaluation of existing learning environments for children along the autism spectrum. First published in 2014 this index outlines 7 design criteria that have been hypothesized to support environments conducive of learning for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). Using the index as a framework, this paper outlines a case study of a Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) of an existing pre-K-8th grade public charter purpose-built school for children on the autism spectrum. The tools used for the evaluation were: the ASPECTSS scoring of the school through a survey of teachers and administrators; on-site behavioral in-class observation; and focus groups of parents, teachers, staff and administrators. The results informed a design retro-fit proposal that strived to assess any ASPECTSS compliance issues and implement the index across the learning spaces, therapy spaces, support services and outdoor learning environments of the school. This paper will outline the application of the index and the resultant design from this process. The results will strive to present a scalable and replicable methodology and prototype for improving existing built environments for learners with ASD.

The purpose of this study was to determine the fulfillment of facilities and infrastructure of general learning spaces, supporting spaces and special learning spaces at SMK Almamater Telaga. This type of research is quantitative with the type of descriptive research. Data collection techniques using interviews, observation, data collection instruments and documentation. The results of the study are 1) the facilities and infrastructure of the general learning space are met according to the standards, and not according to the standards namely Biology Lab, Physics Lab, Chemistry Lab, Natural Sciences, Language Lab and technical drawing practice room. Whereas the facilities for 2 classrooms are in accordance with the standard and 13 classrooms, the library, and the computer lab are not yet in accordance with the standard, 2) the supporting facilities and infrastructure are met according to the standard, toilets, counseling rooms, UKS, and circulation rooms not according to standards, 3) facilities and special learning space infrastructure are not yet up to standard. Suggestions in this research are to pay more attention to the development of LAB infrastructure in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Science, Technical Drawing Practice Room, Counseling Room, UKS Room and circulation room. In addition, the area of special learning space for all majors is adjusted according to the work area of each department.

The rising population of heritage speakers (HS) in university courses in the US has increased the need for instructors who understand the linguistic, social, and cultural profiles of their students. Recent research has discussed the need for specialized courses and their differentiation from second-language (L2) classes, as well as the intersection between HS and language attitudes. However, prior studies have not examined HS students’ language attitudes toward the sociolinguistic background of the instructors and their effect on classroom interactions. Therefore, this study explores HS students’ overall language attitudes and perceptions of their instructors’ sociolinguistic background. In a survey, HS university students (N = 92) across the US assessed four instructor profiles along five dimensions. Results showed that students rated more favorably instructors born and raised in Latin America, followed by those from Spain. Furthermore, HS favored these two profiles over HS or L2 profiles as their course instructors. However, preferences were less marked in the online context. These findings demonstrate that to design supportive learning spaces with—rather than for—HS students, programs must first acknowledge how classroom dynamics are shaped by the perspectives brought into the learning space and by the context of the learning space itself.
