Education delivery PEDAGOGICAL SPACES Jacobs understands the pedagogies of “next generation learning spaces” that focus on collaborative learning environments, with less focus on lecture theatre based teaching and more focus on a range of flexible learning spaces for teacher facilitated group work. Technology is an important learning tool for students to help develop their analytical, innovation, simulation and testing skills, and must be considered in the design of these spaces.

Learning spaces such as these have been successfully implemented in our recent educational commissions including the Southern Cross University, The University of Queensland, Queensland University of Technology, the University of Ballarat and Sheepstation Gully Environmental Learning Centre among others.

“ Our team understands learning is just as likely to happen in the virtual space as in the physical space.”

Education delivery SCIENTIFIC BUILDINGS Jacobs has significant experience in the design and construction of scientific buildings for the teaching of undergraduate science and the transition between secondary school science and tertiary science.

The practical teaching undertaken in laboratories has undergone a significant change over time. Many of these changes have been made possible by the availability of sophisticated technology and the necessity to provide more flexible teaching arrangements to cope with the variety of demands and multiplicity of uses that teaching spaces must now accommodate as an everyday part of their academic program.

“ Our team works closely with key project stakeholders to deliver a range of innovative and collaborative environments that support student learning and development.”

5

Research delivery LABORATORIES AND ASSOCIATED FACILITIES Jacobs is a leader in the delivery of research laboratories and brings recent experience in medical, biological, chemistry, pathology and marine sciences.

Modern research laboratories need to be flexible and adaptable to cater for rapid advances in technology, to enable evolving research foci, yet also cater for stringent safety and code compliance requirements.

Adjacent to open laboratories are laboratory support spaces to serve specific functions, which need separation from open plan areas to meet performance criteria such as function, acoustic, vibration, hazard control or heat output.

“ Our team has extensive experience in the design of laboratories to meet physical containment (PC2/PC3/PC4) and quarantine containment (QC2/QC3/QC4) for DAFF Biosecurity regulatory requirements.”
