Modern learning environments aim to personalize education rather than standardize it. They feature open spaces, visibility, and agile furniture to encourage collaborative teaching approaches like one teach, one observe and team teaching. The focus shifts from "my kids" to "our kids" and learner-centered curriculum prioritizes learner agency and knowledge building over filling students with existing knowledge. Such future-focused curriculum helps students recognize their stake and role in the future.
