Nevertheless, it is necessary to focus on the changes that can be applied in the learning field and not only on the evolution of the university system itself. The desire to refine the educational approach is an extremely current topic in the field of education. This is why, to face a series of social changes, it is fundamental to reconsider the method used to disseminate knowledge and to understand its real needs. Moreover, another element that has to be recalibrated is the lack of effective tools that are provided to students to deal with sudden changes in the business world. As a result of these transformations, the Politecnico di Milano has decided to undertake a deep revision of its didactic spaces in order to better understand the needs of all the university users and to foreshadow new scenarios that can support the evolving teaching and pedagogic methods in all the disciplines involved. The paper presents the results of a research that aims to dissert on spatial needs, potentialities, new habits and uses, and to organise all the requirements in guidelines for new learning spaces that will be firstly applied to four classroom prototypes, and then finalised and revised for a large-scale dissemination.

These are new pedagogical approaches of the "active learning" strand that aim at teaching-learning to promote greater effectiveness and efficiency in achieving the expected learning outcomes (i.e.Biggs' Constructive alignment, Kolb's Learning Cycle, Bandura's Social Learning, Bloom's taxonomy ad Dale's cone..),with the maximum involvement of all the actors. The desire to stimulate the implementation of active and participative teaching needs, however, a new reflection on the spatial environment in which it is located and that should support the students, facilitating the process of involvement, participation, comparison enhancing their creativity and encouraging the development of their "soft skills". Environments that can guarantee: motivation, flexibility, personalization, collaboration and good behaviours. The lack of suitable spaces arranged for this ductility automatically disadvantages the correct execution of teaching, always linked to a more traditional and passive conception. Accordingly, colleges and universities around the world are facing the challenges of rethinking higher education facilities to respond to the emerging needs and these significant changes dealing with teaching activities facing future trends. One of the answers is the use of technology that can perform several key functions in the change process, including opening up new opportunities that improve teaching and learning particularly with the affordance of customization of learning to individual learner needs, which is highly supported by the learning sciences [1]. The technology used in educational spaces must, therefore, make a transition from vertical technology (for teacher's needs in a confined setting) to horizontal technology (for meeting students' personal needs across multiple physical contexts) [2]. This paper focuses on the evolving requirements of learning spaces to become spatial supports able to make the lecture a learning experience developed by a network of people, a construction, and sharing of knowledge as a summation of the individuals involved through the use of innovative technology for learning. It will attempt to test within an existing campus: the Politecnico di Milano (Italy). The specific aim of this work is to present the emerging spatial needs due to the changes cited above, in order to support the active learning process, and test them with participatory activities, addressed both to academic staff and students. The expected results aim at a rethinking of the spatial model that allows supporting in the classroom this continuous mechanism of interaction between people and space, molding to the current needs, creating and encouraging the highest possible number of connections between the different actors present in the classroom. The final outputs are Learning space prototypes as a reflection of the university environment as an alive and vibrant organism, composed of constantly moving information flows through the actors, the spaces, and supports for a 360-degree performing use, able to reach a very high educational impact.

A partire dall'individuazione degli approcci riscontrabili nella letteratura e dall'identificazione di casi studio internazionali, il saggio si concentra su un'analisi qualitativa dei modelli di intervento proponendo una matrice di valutazione che individui indicatori significativi per comprendere l'efficacia nel tempo dei progetti. La matrice si avvale dell'esperienza di un collettivo che promuove progetti di spazi pubblici attraverso nuove forme di interazione tra gli abitanti e i beni comuni.

Nel testo si indaga il rapporto tra temporaneità e durabilità dell’approccio progettuale mettendo a confronto design e architettura attraverso la chiave di lettura della mobilità urbana. Quest’ultima viene reinterpretata sia dal punto di vista dei flussi di persone, merci ed informazioni, che incidono sui modi di vivere la città, sia dal punto di vista delle trasformazioni, che si attuano attraverso una pluralità di ritmi differenti dove si riconoscono e convivono, anche se apparentemente in contraddizione, concezioni diverse dell’abitare la contemporaneità cui rispondono alternativamente e talvolta in sovrapposizione le culture disciplinari dell’architettura e del design

In particular, after a first analysis of the current state of contemporary cities and their rapid evolution towards increasingly fluid formats, the temporal variable is identified as a possible key. It influences the design approach from an extrovert point of view and therefore an urban transformation that starts from the interior space, which introverts, moving towards a change in the discipline approach to the design of domestic interiors.

En el papel se analiza el uso innovador de los materiales tradicionales o el uso de nuevo materiales en espacios públicos, destacando dos tendencias posibles en busca de mejorar la calidad de los espacios urbanos: expresividad y funcionamiento. Estudios de casos seleccionados son revelados de presentar como las nuevas formas, una tensión en los valores de percepción y el impacto medioambiental y comodidad tanta como durabilidad son los principales objetivos de innovación de materiales en este campo.

The term hospitality is used here with a wide meaning, coming from the idea that "Real hospitality is not just welcoming people in on the first night, but liking that they come back and stay, fitting into the city, making their own contribution and making the place their own" (Leadbeater, 2009). Collection and analysis of more than 61 examples of hospitality sharing services was a useful tool to understand the current international scenario. The collected case studies were presented on 6 positioning maps regarding six specific themes of the study.
