What is Future Classroom Lab?

 

Before the discussion of Future Classroom Lab, the introduction of European Schoolnet should go first. European Schoolnet is a network of 33 European Ministries of Education, based in Brussels, Belgium. As a not-for-profit organization, they aim to bring innovation in teaching and learning to their key stakeholders: Ministries of Education, schools, teachers, researchers, and industry partners. They are driven by their mission to support education stakeholders in Europe in the transformation of education processes for 21st century digitalized societies. They do this by identifying and testing promising innovative practices, sharing evidence about their impact, and supporting the mainstreaming of teaching and learning practices aligned with 21st century standards for inclusive education.
Created by European Schoolnet, the Future Classroom Lab (FCL) is an inspirational, fully equipped, reconfigurable, teaching and learning environment in Brussels, challenging visitors to rethink the role of pedagogy, technology and design in their classrooms. In the Future Classroom Lab, visitors can explore:

  • The competences and roles for students' and teachers' 21st century teaching and learning.
  • Different learning styles and more personalized, active learning.
  • Learning environment design and how it can impact student engagement and classroom interaction.
  • Current and emerging technology to support all of the above and societal trends affecting education.
