I’m attending a conference entitled: The Ecology of a Whole Campus Approach to Creativity at the University of Warwick (http://www2.warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/iatl/projects/osl/). The brief goes as follows:

What is Open-space Learning? “At a practical level OSL is an example of what might be recognised as the workshop model” of teaching and learning. The workshop is the basic unit in pedagogic interaction between
facilitator and participant in OSL. The open space of the workshop allows its participants to become producers of knowledge by creating an environment that prevents the reformation of the rigidly hierarchical arrangements of lecture theatre and seminar room.”
