Abstract

School innovation seems to have become a categorical imperative, both when it comes to teaching methods and buildings. Innovative learning environments are increasingly being proposed as models for new ways of organizing and using the educational space. However, the daily scenario in existing schools is usually very different: aged buildings, inadequate environments and obsolete equipment, but also occupational and usage models that are often very critical. Outdated facilities make the life of the school “inhabitants” difficult and take away the imagination, any thought that something different may happen. In fact, everyone would like to live in new or completely renovated schools, but this is not possible, or at least not for all in a short time. However, this condition does not prevent, school communities from starting to take action. Indeed, they could self–promote improvement processes and outline intervention programs to be adapted over time based on priorities, operating conditions and available resources. Some methodological models — based on the principle of “making feedback” with users involvement– seem to be excellent tools to help moving towards change.
