Learning environments. A conceptual approach

Abstract

This article is a bibliographical analysis of the problem of learning environments. It does not intend to be thorough, but to contribute to the conceptual delimitation of this problem. Although the transformations of contemporary cultures have questioned the monopoly that the school has traditionally had over educational issues; currently, the school still one of the most important social learning environments. It is therefore, necessary to rethink learning environments such as the classroom, from diverse and complex perspectives that approach the learning environment from ludic activities, aesthetics and the new technological mediations, in order to highlight the axis on which we could base a much deeper reflection on contemporary education beyond the instrumentalist, transmissionist and disciplinary principles.
