Welcome to the Design for Learning Co-Lab
Powered by EDmarket (Education Market Association)
The Design for Learning Co-Lab is an online initiative where educators, researchers, designers, and industry leaders come together with one shared belief:
Our mission is to bridge evidence-based research with practical application-empowering communities to reimagine and redesign learning environments for the needs of tomorrow's learners, today.
We're developing national guidelines for designing and assessing high-performing learning environments — with a focus on the classroom.
Key Features:
Empowering stakeholders to apply research-informed design principles with clarity and confidence.
Design success starts long before blueprints. Design | R.E.A.D.Y. will prepare education leaders to align space design solutions with future-focused learning goals.
Program Goals:
Ensure your team is truly R.E.A.D.Y. to shape spaces that support long-term learning outcomes.
Join the movement to transform education through design.
In this special conversation, Dr. Lennie Scott-Webber sits down with Dr. Thomas Müller from VS to explore the remarkable School Museum in Germany—an immersive space that captures the evolution of learning environments over more than a century. Together, they discuss how the museum preserves the history of education, what it reveals about changing pedagogy and design, and how these insights continue to shape the learning spaces of today. This engaging interview offers a unique look at the past to better understand the future of school design.
