Week 8 (27 feb – 6 Mar 2023)
This week we focus on what workspace in Education will look like in the future.
Our group researched and imagined what it would be.
Learning space will look different from nowadays because of technology and the critical thinking of a human. We come up with the idea of gender-neutral humans, the structure and function of the space.
They can be 3D or 4D. We will reduce gender bias and ethnographic prejudice using technology such as Cyborgs and Virtual Space.
It can be learner-centred spaces that embody the principles of student-led learning. There’s no one-size-fits-all design; in addition to student ages, available resources, and building constraints, designs must consider variables ranging from the local climate to cultural conditions.
The roles of Students, Teachers, Researchers and Staff are only limited by time and activity. So, one person can be in more than one role. They can be a student in the morning and a teacher in the afternoon.
I come up with the idea of the Type of creative spaces from the research.
the focused creative work.
Solitary Space
allows thinking and meditation, which is characterised by a silent atmosphere
Team Space
invites people to communicate with each other, which is characterised by noise, playfulness and team interactions
Tinker Space
allows people to experiment and build stuff, e.g. in the university’s workshops
Presentation Space
where people can actively present and show their work or passively consume input (such as lectures)
Transition Spaces
like hallways, which are used for informal exchange and chats and to withdraw from

There’re four parts of the work that we will do.
– Illustrate future education workplace.
– The life routine in the future.
– Artefacts of the future.
– The persona of people in the future.
