School Design Patterns

This workshop session: "Design Patterns" is based on the the book, "The Language of School Design: Design Patterns for 21st Century Schools", by Prakash Nair and Randall Fielding. The book is a seminal work because it defines a new graphic vocabulary that synthesizes learning research with best practice in school planning and design. But it is more than a book about ideas. It is also a practical tool and a must-have resource for all school stakeholders involved in planning, designing and constructing new and renovated schools and evaluating the educational adequacy of existing school facilities.
