Of course - if you get rid of classrooms, you've probably gotten rid of classes as well. That's what really makes this school without classrooms great. "elefonplan, one of 30 schools from the Swedish education company Vittra, has replaced the classroom with loosely designed learning spaces in which students can come and go. The school considers the laptop to be a key learning tool, enabling students to learn virtually anywhere." It would be a great community space for adults as well, suitable for both day and evening use. Via.
