Media is at the heart of learning… design and functionality of a school have a significant impact on the learning experience. No space offers an opportunity to incorporate modern learning styles better than the media center, one of the most adaptive spaces in any school facility. The traditional methods of storing, sharing and disseminating media have also shifted with the greater understanding of the learner experience. This constant metamorphosis is evidenced by the space’s many titles over time; library, IMC, media center and learning commons or instructional center.

In outdated schools, the media center design may not reflect or support these changes, in turn leading to underutilization of and lack of student engagement with the space. This presents both challenges and opportunities for schools to reconsider the role of the media center. What would it take to get your facility’s media center caught up with the dynamic needs of today’s learners? Contact The Pizzuto Group to learn more.
