Future Learning Centers: Educational Paradigms, Basic Characteristics and Space Construction
Abstract
[Purpose/Significance] With the rapid development and widespread application of the Internet, artificial intelligence, information technology, and other technologies, China's education informatization is currently in a critical period of integration and innovation combining digital technology and education. The deep integration of intelligent technology and education has brought diversified changes to education. The Education 4.0 concept, which emphasizes personalized education and innovative teaching with students as the main focus, has emerged. The Higher Education Department of the Ministry of Education of China proposed in its 2023 key work points, it is required to explore and promote the pilot of the "Future Learning Center", leverage the advantages of university libraries, integrate various learning resources in the school, utilize new generation information technology, and create a new grassroot learning organization that supports the transformation of learning methods. According to the development trend of the new paradigm of education in the new era, university libraries should construct diversified ecological spaces and learning scenarios through literature resource integration, spatial process reengineering, intelligent technology application, and learning support services. [Method/Process] By conducting targeted literature analysis, conducting research on university libraries, and paying attention to industry seminars, the current research status and construction progress of future learning centers in China are summarized. The changes in learning space, teacher roles, course content, learning methods, and evaluation systems of future learning centers under the development trend of Education 4.0 are analyzed, Summarize the basic characteristics that future learning centers should present after achieving seamless integration between knowledge, resources, users, and scenarios. Based on the service functions of university libraries in learning, academia, culture, innovation, etc., focus on exploring the construction and service paths of spaces such as self-learning support space, education and teaching support space, digital academic support space, and creative creation support space, the goal is to create a diversified learning ecosystem that integrates reading, teaching, experience, participation, exploration, collaboration, and creation. [Results/Conclusions] The future learning center will become an important opportunity for university libraries to transform from a resource center to a learning center. However, the construction of future learning centers is not standardized or exemplary. Each school must "put people first", investigate and analyze the user needs, behavioral habits, subject characteristics, and school situation of its teachers and students, balance user needs and library situation, and highlight key points and characteristics. At the same time, university libraries need to cooperate with colleges and departments to jointly build, coordinate the technology and strength of the entire school, integrate and share resources, collaborate and use technology, cross integrate disciplines, and exchange and recognize evaluation systems. University libraries aim to create a new campus learning ecosystem through the construction of future learning centers, providing readers with personalized learning services, intelligent learning environments, precise learning platforms, and innovative learning ecosystems, and achieving the educational goals of students' autonomous learning, intelligent learning, and lifelong learning.
