Welcome!
Welcome to ReLearning2! Relearning x Learning = Relearning2. A simple equation meaning learning to relearn again. We are about the intersection of education and architecture in the creation of spaces for learning. Our vehicle is this website in its structure as a social network to encourage the dissemination of ideas and thoughts for the benefit of our membership toward the goal of design and implementation of better learning spaces and environments.
We are about “connectivity” and invite everyone, especially those outside the design community to join us and contribute to our site. Videos, links, discussion threads, forums, etc - we support interaction. We seek members from beyond the educational community as well - business leaders, economists, community leaders, artists, scientists, philosophers, etc. - we believe that the solutions for learning are to be found in the diversity and richness of a multitude of experiences and creativity that rests within each individual who cares about our collective future.
So, please join us today. It’s free! And when you do, encourage others to join and spread the word about ReL2!
"The illiterate of the 21st Century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn." ~ Alvin Toffler

Student-Driven Learning Using Technology
Do teachers need to know every aspect of the educational tools in the classroom? I've heard many teachers comment about how difficult it is to keep up with the technology. Is it really their burden though? If allowed, can students play a part in figuring out how to use these digital tools?
In the TED Talk by Sugata Mitra, this issue is explored. Kids in poor countries are given access to computers with high-speed internet without any instruction on how to use it. His…
