Description:

The University of Arizona has made a strong commitment to the improvement of teaching quality. Hundreds of studies show that students learn more and fail less when active learning strategies are used. To this end, Collaborative Learning Spaces (CLSs) that facilitate collaborative active learning have been created. In these spaces, faculty members are using innovative teaching and learning strategies that promote higher order thinking that leads to better understanding and improved ability to transfer knowledge to other applications. These rooms are an important component of the University's commitment to continuous improvement and culture change because numerous studies provide significant evidence that engagement is critical to the success of students. As of Fall 2019, UA has 32 Collaborative Learning Spaces.Steward Observatory Room 204 Awaits Students!Completed shortly after fall semester began, this 51-seat, multi-tiered CLS was combined out of two smaller rooms located in the Steward Observatory.
