Are you familiar with the expressions fab lab, makerspace or future classroom lab? Like those spaces, the Aula nova has been conceived as a welcoming, flexible place to work in groups. The methodology is oriented towards enhancing learning, developing creativity and innovation and fostering student autonomy.
COMMUNICATE

present
A space to showcase your work. There are wheeled chairs with integrated desks which can be moved around so that everyone can face each other, a presentation desk with a small adjustable standing desk, a lectern with a microphone, an interactive blackboard where you can write with regular chalk, felt-tip pens or an electronic pen, and a recording booth.
COLLABORATE

This area is equipped with adjustable furniture and divided into different spaces. Here you will have the chance to try out different ways of organizing the space to foster interaction with different resources: tables with individual boards which also serve to divide up the space, a comfortable booth with sofas and a screen or interchange diamond desks with a power bank to charge mobile devices.
