Abstract
This ethnographic case study investigates staff and student experiences of undergraduate teaching and learning in three new, specially designed spaces at two UK universities. On a small scale, it explores the themes, and applies some of the methodologies of research and data analysis, set out in Chapter 2.The findings highlight some valuable points for further study and consideration in this field of inquiry, and constitute a significant counterpoint to the recent emphasis on the role and significance of technological innovation in shaping new models of teaching and learning in post-compulsory education.
