2. EIF Project: Extension of the UC Learning Hub: A Learning
Environment at the Heart of Campus
The project will expand facilities for informal, self-directed learning and access
to collaborative learning spaces for both students and staff – combining
virtual, physical and social learning environments.
Specifically, the project will:
• Redevelop the ground and mezzanine levels of the refectory to integrate with the
‘Learning Hub’.
• Extend the interactive and collaborative learning environment of the Hub to meet the
changing learning needs and expectations of students and staff.

65. email feedback
• My initial impression is of a amazingly technically-supported range of flexible spaces for working
away from the office. Amidst the latest in learning technologies, I loved the write-on wall. No white
boards, but especially painted walls (those that have a sticker on) that give space to 'spread your
mind'.
Faculty of Education
• Its magical what a combination of technology, design and thoughtful planning can do. I am sure the
staff and students will use it well.
Research Office
• The Nursing & Midwifery staff were so impressed with the teaching commons that our new Head of
Disciplines has asked if we can use the space for our Research and Scholarship workshops.
