Exploration Lab
Provide space, furniture and technology as part of Media Resource Centers such as a Flex Lab / Exploration Lab to demonstrate research discoveries; ideate, create, prototype, and test. Look for programmatic synergies to place Specialized Labs adjacent to Media Resource Centers.
The Ed Specs serve to illustrate concepts that will inform the master plans based on OUSD's aspirations to the audience of future architects who will implement them as well as for OUSD stakeholders to understand the reasoning behind modernizations.
Projects Enabled
Is there a dedicated maker space / exploration lab with storage and display space to support project-based learning?
Research
Is there furniture and technology to support both self-directed and collaborative research?

Inquiry Based Learning Cycle
Because the demonstration phase of Inquiry-Based Learning models (Project-Based Learning, Problem Based Learning, Challenge Based Learning, Design Thinking, Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) includes ideation, prototyping, and testing, consider building placement near or adjacent to visual arts and flex labs to encompass the entire inquiry cycle.
