Our Essential Question, then, is: \"In a wired world unfettered by the geography of place, how do we design teaching and learning spaces when much of the teaching and learning happens outside of the physical \"school\" building?\"","Description":"World-class teaching and learning can, and perhaps should, take place under a tree. With this in mind, our conversation will focus on the essential non-difference between the physical facility (the school) and the teaching and learning that takes place inside of those spaces (the School). We will explore and build on the idea that the educational facility can be used as a 5 dimensional (including time and cyberspace), hands-on teaching and learning tool to achieve academic and civic objectives.","Link":["http:\/\/www.guerillaeducators.typepad.com"],"Audience":["All School Levels"],"Practice":"Authentic Youtube style video examples of students conducting architecture projects across the grades and participating in school design charrettes will frame and contextualize the conversations.  We will also use the physical facility of the SLA with the participants as a vehicle to demonstrate the permeable nature between teaching and learning and the structure where that takes place.","Presenter":["John Sole"],"PresenterAffiliation":["President\/CEO Guerilla Educators"],"PresenterEmail":["tcherjohn@aol.com"],"ScheduleSlot":"Session Three","Room":"209"}}
