So, blogger, school designer, SLA planning team member and good friend Christian Long is keeping busy as the Director of Communications & Business Development for Design Share and that’s good news for everyone who was thinking about learning more about school design and its impact on teaching and learning.

Two quick things to highlight, for folks who are interested:
One — Sign up for the free newsletter. Even if you’re not building a school, you’re going to find things in there that will make you rethink the way you use your space now.

Two — Take a look at the Seventh Annual Design Awards For Innovative Learning Environments — if you’re planning a school or school renovation that has an innovative design, think about applying. And if you just want to look at some of the really amazing ways architects and school designers and educators are collaborating to reimagine school spaces, just browse through their Project Library.

I’m actually really pleased with the way we’ve reimagined the space at 2130 Arch St so that an office building could become an innovative school. I wonder how SLA stacks up.
