Optimizing space utilization and design for hybrid learning environments: A framework for pedagogical and facility integration


Author(s): Anurita Gautam and Vilas Kailas Tayde

Abstract:

Hybrid learning environments, which merge physical and digital instructional spaces, demand innovative approaches to campus planning, space allocation, and pedagogical alignment. Conventional classrooms and campus infrastructures often fail to support flexible teaching models such as blended, flipped, or synchronous hybrid learning. This study introduces a comprehensive framework for optimizing learning space utilization while integrating pedagogical objectives with facility planning. Employing a mixed-methods strategy—encompassing literature review, case studies, and expert interviews—the framework identifies three essential dimensions: (1) Pedagogical Purpose, (2) Spatial Design, and (3) Technology Integration. Results indicate that effective hybrid learning environments prioritize adaptability, inclusivity, environmental quality, and seamless digital-physical integration. The proposed framework offers actionable recommendations for higher education institutions and contributes a conceptual model for holistic learning space planning.
