 The particularity of this workshop is its focus on Prototyping as a mean for challenging and pushing the innovation process. As part of their ongoing work, the AIA Research & Education working group had already identified some key ideas around the future of learning spaces that they wanted to push further. It seemed a great opportunity to experience the power of quick and rough prototyping as a method for testing and generating ideas. The particularity of this workshop is its focus on Prototyping as a mean for challenging and pushing the innovation process.

 The workshop was conceived and facilitated by Design students. Four mixed teams were formed with two or three AIA R&E members with backgrounds in architecture,​ engineering or management and two design students. The tools put in place by the facilitators are part of the AYCH ToolBox. Throughout the workshop, a researcher observed and noted the different interactions and reactions to the tools as well as the creative outcomes of the process. The workshop was conceived and facilitated by Design students.

 On this occasion, each team built an Idea Wall where they collected a series of main values and ideas associated with their particular working theme, many of these ideas and values were represented by images. The idea wall evolved and got richer as the team's work progressed during the day. After some exchanges, each group had to agree on one particular idea or concept they would have to develop next. On this occasion, each team built an Idea Wall where they collected a series of main values and ideas associated with their particular working theme, many of these ideas and values were represented by images.

 Once each group chose the idea or concept they wanted to develop, each group had to produce a user scenario. This tool challenges the participants to think about how a potential user would interact with their idea or concept. It focuses the exchanges among the participants around the user's experiences and needs regarding their concept.

-Mobile spaces and less surface+Mobile spaces and less surface
  
 +When designing free and fluid spaces, user's and furniture'​s mobility is often challenged by technical constraints. For users to be really free and mobile, they must be able to connect to the electric grid at any time, anywhere. "A hanging socket"​ that can be plugged anywhere to the open ceiling electric grid is the key element of the concept. In this space, only some hard elements are fixed: the water point and stockage room. The rest of the space aims at hosting different individual and collective usages and functions as users can easily plug the hanging socket into the grid. The connected electric grid allows users to book and arrange the spaces in advance via an application.
  
 +This group prototyped three different elements of their concept: the space, a paper prototype of the app and the hanging socket. For this group, the prototyping process made it possible to account for the mutualizable areas of the space and its capacity to evolve. This is very useful when exchanging with developers so they have a better understanding of the idea.

 This group focused on the interstitial learning spaces, particularly the circulation spaces around the classroom. How to create a porosity between the classrooms and the circulation areas in order to propose new usages?. The material answer to this questioning is a mobile wall that allows to modulate and create different spaces adapted to the particular needs of the users. This smart wall is pierced so different artefacts can be hooked into it in order to generate different usages. This group focused on the interstitial learning spaces, particularly the circulation spaces around the classroom.

-THE WELLBEING PLAYGROUND+The restoration spaces in schools are often the most expensive and technically complex in schools. However, they are mostly used only during lunchtime. How to find other functionalities at different moments for restoration spaces?.

 +The idea is to separate the kitchen area from the serving area. The serving area is intended to be used for other purposes than eating: intellectual exchanges, manual or recreational activities, etc. On the other hand, it can be a space open to external local users such as associations. The modular furniture to this multifunctional space would be key to the users so they can create different spaces within the space.

 The concept is an innovative playground that is modulable and evolutive. Being the core of the future learning spaces, the group aimed at conceiving first this space usually seen as an empty space to then see how the rest of the buildings and building elements could be connected to the playground. The concept is an innovative playground that is modulable and evolutive.

 The prototyping process was a driver for idea generation. In the process ideas became clearer, richer, more precise and more important, the prototype itself became a communicational tool among the group'​s members. As they progressed in the making of their prototype, the groups were pushed to make decisions regarding the overall project. The prototyping process was a driver for idea generation.

 +The group discussed the value of rapid & manipulable prototyping as a tool for conveying their ideas and work in progress to key stakeholders:​ developers, funders and potential users.
  
 Overall, the role of the facilitators was key for keeping a good level of energy, dynamism and confidence within the groups. Overall, the role of the facilitators was key for keeping a good level of energy, dynamism and confidence within the groups.
