Alan Gilbert
The Alan Gilbert Building Teaching and Learning Spaces are three modern 60/30-student-sized seminar rooms fitted with high-end AV and subdivided with Skyfold ceiling hung folding walls. This new type of teaching space is replacing the traditional lecture theatre. The Skyfold automated walls allow the classrooms to function as one, two or three teaching and learning spaces, totaling 150 students. The rooms are fitted with blended learning equipment such as cameras, multiple LCDs and microphones to allow students to join the class remotely online in a participatory manner.
