Campus & Student Life
The learning spaces in Monash are designed to be adapted for a variety of active learning experiences and are equipped with the latest technology to meet the specific needs of staff and students. There are spaces for studio-based learning, open spaces that can be divided into semi-formal and informal spaces, break-out areas for student discussions, LCD screens for group work, and large whiteboards for brainstorming and problem solving – all designed to stimulate the student’s engagement in active learning.
