EDUCAUSE Features Steelcase Education Active Learning Center Partner
Each year, academic professionals and technology providers gather at EDUCAUSE, a conference dedicated to higher education IT. Steelcase Education had a significant presence at the 2017 conference in Philadelphia. Danielle Dion, library director at the University of Saint Mary (USM) in Leavenworth, Kansas, shared a keynote presentation about the impact of the Steelcase Education Active Learning Center Grant partnership on her school and community.
A vision for active learning was the motivation behind USM’s application for the 2016 Active Learning Center Grant. When USM staff found out they received the grant, the school worked with the community and Steelcase Education to create a multipurpose space housed in the heart of the university’s library. At EDUCAUSE, Dion shared how this active learning space has transformed the library from a simple space to study, into a communal, collaborative learning environment serving many university and community needs.
