Learning Studio: Year One

Creativity is rarely a single light-bulb moment. Success is rarely the result of individual effort. To reimagine the future of teaching and learning, the AT&T Learning Studio at Abilene Christian University seeks to provide an environment that encourages experimentation and collaboration.

At the end of our first year of operation, we wanted to take the opportunity to tell a few stories and share the achievements of our students and faculty.

Step inside Year One at the Learning Studio in an interactive report that features a virtual tour of the facility, video interviews and image galleries from projects in our inaugural year.

(Note: To view embedded video and interactive content, make sure to download the iBook Version. Apple iBooks require an iPad running the iBooks 2 app and are not currently viewable on a Mac, PC or smartphone.)

 

Highlights

  • The 35-page report includes interviews and projects from 35 faculty and students
  • Our 8,800 square foot facility is presented from early design sketches to a full virtual tour
  • 7 content galleries and 14 movies—including the Year One feature video—introduce major projects
  • A “by the numbers” section summarizes facility usage, workshops participation and equipment checkout

 

About the Report

Learning Studio staff produced the Year One Report using iBooks Author for display on iPad, in part to better understand the software and assess its potential in producing next-generation learning content.

On September 19th, we’ll be presenting on the process in an NMC Connect webinar hosted by the New Media Consortium. We’ll post more details when we have them to Twitter and Facebook.
