Engaging Spaces
What are Engaging Spaces?
Engaging spaces, commonly known as active learning spaces, are those that allow students to work with each other in groups of various sizes that foster engagement through technologies ranging from dry-erase boards, to movable furniture, to computers and other media. Active learning can vary by discipline, so faculty are encouraged to think outside of the physical constraints of existing rooms on campus. We invite you to explore the possibilities.
Reserve an Engaging Spaces classroom
We invite all instructors across campus to take advantage of our Engaging Spaces classrooms and reserve teaching time in the room that best fits their needs. Each room offers a different experience so be sure to look at the room's photos, a list of technology/furniture, and a capacity number before you reserve a time to teach. Rooms are available for reoccurring or one-time reservations. For SHSU users, submit a reservation request in AdAstra for ad hoc events, or use the university classroom scheduling process to schedule your class in an Engaging Spaces room.
SHSU instructors may reserve a room for a one-time visit, multiple visits throughout the term, or for the duration of the semester. Rooms must be reserved through the Teaching & Learning Center (TLC) via AdAstra.
To schedule your class in an Engaging Spaces classroom, please follow these instructions:
- Click "Request via AdAstra" below to navigate to the AdAstra scheduler.
- Complete the Event Request form for Engaging Classrooms.
- Once the request is submitted, wait for confirmation from AdAstra for the booking.
Please note the event is not booked until you have received the confirmation email.
Contact tlc@shsu.edu if you have any questions.
