The Impact of Interactive Learning Spaces on Learning: A Mini Review

Abstract

A vital answer to education demands in the twenty-first century has necessitated student-oriented teaching and learning environments. Meanwhile, the immediate surrounding has consistently been subjected to transformation and the notion which was once held t our environment is “that which surrounds us” can no longer hold because many a factor has pulled down the immediate walls that define physical boundaries with the internet taking the lead. As a result, there is an emergence of a new environment thriving on what humans can build, create or innovate making possible a dual existence in another realm called the “internet”. Meanwhile, Herczeg et al (2021) asserted that learning should be structured in such a way that learners can discover and learn modicums of knowledge on their own, especially in this era of sophisticated digital and virtual environments while the physical world serves as a platform for ground and evaluation thereby successfully bridging the physical and virtual learning platforms. This virtual learning platform is perceived as a means of easing the apprehension of arbitrated events by technology farther from using audio-visual aid, social networks, among others, which is leading to the imminent change of the traditional education (Morales-Salas & Montes-Ponce, 2019).
