Neue Lernwelten
Over the past fifteen years, numerous educational buildings have been constructed in Austria that provide new impulses for learning environments beyond the traditional corridor school. This development is the result of joint efforts by professionals in education, architecture and public administration to adapt educational spaces to contemporary pedagogical approaches and to make space effective as a “third educator”.
This book presents 50 outstanding examples and, through essays and conversations, reflects on the background and circumstances of their creation. It is aimed particularly at educators and architects who wish to create better learning environments and are looking for a shared foundation on which to do so.
Concept and texts by Christian Kühn, with contributions by Barbara Feller, Renate Hammer, Roman Höllbacher, Isabella Marboe, Astrid Meyer-Hainisch, Christian Peer, Romana Ring, Theresa Schleinitz, Carla Schwaderer, Karin Schwarz-Viechtbauer and Nicola Weber.
