Abstract

Northumbria University has an established education strategy that engages students in critical scholarship and enquiry as partners in learning. This is particularly appropriate to professional education which lend itself to problem solving and experiential learning. This is manifested by a pedagogy emphasising the importance of enquiry based research activity in which learners collaborate with peers, employers, and tutors using a range of technology enabled and individualised learning interventions including coaching, groupwork, tutorial and workshops. The aspiration to collaborative social learning cannot be achieved without investment in the estate to facilitate these activities.
