Connected: Collaborative Solutions to Technological Challenges
Abstract
Following the launch of their mobile learning initiative in the fall of 2008, administrators and faculty at Abilene Christian University (ACU) began working together to conceptualize how the campus should move forward to strengthen and diversify what students would learn from and about technology, and the skills they would take with them into their chosen careers. One result of these cross-campus conversations was the Learning Studio, an interdisciplinary, technologically focused, collaborative space, located within ACU’s Margaret and Herman Brown Library. This chapter explores how ACU constructed this facility to respond to the technologically sophisticated needs of 21st-century higher education and how the creation of this type of collaborative space both offers solutions to current issues and opens the door to solving future problems educators must take on if they hope to truly prepare their students for 21st-century careers.
