Fenn Young Designers Award (FYDA)
A new Learning Environment
As technology advance in spades our lives are changing dramatically. Generations’ technological gap
is widening greatly and parents are finding it difficult to understand their kids and deal with their ways
of working, learning and socializing.
It is even more obvious in schools where the challenges faced by teachers, curricula and physical
facilities are immense.
Young generation’ ways of learning, their multitasking skills are changing. Sitting in a quiet room
surrounded with rows of books is becoming almost obsolete. Young generations are looking for
interactive environments, environments that allow them to work, share, socialize, and learn.
Fenn Young Designers Award Challenge this year is;
How can the “library” be re-imagined and re-engineered to provide this type of environment for
the Millennials?
