FOUR PRINCIPLE 2 Create Hospitable Space

The idea is to create a physical space that enables you to move around in that space, and to create a social space that encourages you to swap and share and help each other. If you can design the physical space, the social space, and the information space together to enhance collaborative learning, then that whole milieu turns into a learning technology. People just love working there and they start learning with and from each other.

—John Seely Brown, former chief scientist, Xerox Corporation
