Active Learning Classrooms

The Center for Learning and Teaching (CLT) supports AUC Learning Spaces Strategic Plan. AUC is currently piloting three Active Learning (AL) classrooms and one faculty innovation lab (faculty sandbox space) financed by AUC. These classrooms allow faculty to experiment with flexible furniture for individual and group work. 

CLT provides workshops and consultations and conducts classroom action research to assess the impact of these redesigned spaces on the learning and teaching environment at AUC. The classrooms are equipped with state-of-the-art technologies, tools and flexible furniture to support active learning and teaching innovation.
