What is a Learning Commons?
A Learning Commons is a learning space that is both physical and virtual. As you might guess, a Learning Commons is about common physical and virtual places to collaborate, experiment, practice, celebrate, learn, work, and play.
As the center of the Learning Commons, the school library becomes more than the hub of the school where students and staff go to on projects and find materials they need. The school library joins forces with the school computer lab and is transformed into a vital catalyst for student success and school improvement.
