Introduction
Learning Environments Applied Research Network (LEaRN) is a cross-disciplinary research network with hubs in the Faculty of Education, the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning, and the Faculty of Medicine, Dentistry and Health Sciences at the University of Melbourne.
LEaRN is a multidisciplinary forum, a portal and an international network bringing together academia and industry to research, imagine and discuss physical learning environments in school, vocational, university, medical and corporate contexts.
The foci of LEaRN are:
- To transfer research knowledge from LEaRN into FoE's teaching programs and its own infrastructure development
- To build the faculty's research capacity in this rapidly growing area
- To undertake bespoke learning environment-focused research that aligns closely with FoE's research priorities
- To act as an administration base for FoE's contribution in LEaRN.
