For the past forty years Anne Taylor has studied how good design of our schools, museums, homes and learning landscapes can affect learning and behavior of students. When architects are cognizant of newer models of education, they can design spaces that better support learners. When educators step beyond the school-as-big-box, they begin to use the built and natural environment as a three-dimensional textbook, a teaching and learning tool.

The result is an informed and dynamic architecture that enables children to discover the power of their own learning. The book’s numerous design examples of design excellence demonstrate an interdisciplinary, sustainable understanding of place that links architecture, education and community.

Order this book today and discover new models of teaching and learning in environments that will appeal to students everywhere.
