Strategic Planning Themes
Innovate in How We Teach and Learn
- Explore the use of tools and experiential learning to help equip students for success, and as part of Georgia Tech's commitment to innovation.
- Provide academic rigor to cope with uncertainty, lifelong learning skills.
- Capitalize on appropriate use of educational technology.
- Address faculty/student ratio, the mix of graduate and undergraduate students, an analysis of how students really learn today, and the potential roles of technology in that process.
Your comments relating to this strategic theme are invited and welcome. Specific ideas/suggestions about possible future approaches at Georgia Tech in this subject area are particularly important and helpful to the planning process.

Learning outside of the classroom Submitted by Anonymous on Tuesday October 20, at 8:30 am
GT is very much pressed for space in the historic core area of campus. Consequently student learning suffers. It suffers not just because there aren't enough classrooms in that area of campus, but more because there are not rooms/space for students to claim as their own for the types of activities that are "extra curricular" While the virtual and online world will become increasingly important, physical space where people can met face to face will remain important.
Specifically I think our strategic vision should include small conference style spaces that student groups can reserve for an entire semester to facilitate participation in student design competitions, senior design, invention competitions, or just group projects. These spaces need to give the students ample work and storage space. Wall space for posting, presentation space for sharing ideas.
