Artificial intelligence is poised to revolutionize the design of learning environments, offering education leaders innovative ways to create spaces that are adaptable, efficient, and responsive to changing pedagogical needs. A webcast scheduled for March 11, 2026, at 11am PT / 2pm ET, will bring together experts in education technology, AI, and audiovisual systems to explore this transformative potential. The event will feature discussions on how AI is reshaping the planning, construction, and utilization of educational facilities.
The panel will examine emerging use cases for AI in learning environments, demonstrating how the technology can support progressive educational models. As educational institutions strive to adapt to new instructional methodologies, AI stands out as a critical driver for creating smarter, more innovative spaces across campuses. By moving beyond traditional Internet of Things (IoT) implementations, AI facilitates a more dynamic approach to learning space design.
Craig Park, Director of Digital Experience Design and Associate Principal at Clark & Enersen, will serve as the moderator for the session. His expertise will guide the conversation toward practical strategies for implementing AI in educational settings. Joining him will be Byron Tarry, Founder and Chief Transformation Officer at NEXXT; Joe Way, Co-Founder of HETMA and Executive Director of Digital Spaces at the University of California, Los Angeles; and Andrew Vogel, Communications Chair of HETMA and Instructional Design Specialist at The Ohio State University. Collectively, these panelists represent a wealth of knowledge in integrating technology with educational design.
Participants will receive insights into the infrastructure needed to support AI initiatives, as well as guidance on scalability and integration within existing frameworks. The goal is to prepare institutions not only for current demands but also for future changes in educational paradigms. Attendees can also earn a certificate of attendance, adding value to their professional development.
The implications of AI in learning space design extend beyond mere aesthetics; they touch on the core of educational effectiveness. As pedagogical approaches evolve, so too must the environments in which learning occurs. AI can enable real-time adjustments to classroom layouts, optimize resources, and provide personalized learning experiences, thereby enhancing both teaching and learning processes.
This webcast is a timely opportunity for educational leaders to engage with transformative ideas that may shape the future of learning environments. With AI technologies becoming increasingly integral to various industries, their integration into education underscores the necessity for institutions to adapt and innovate. As such, the discussions on March 11 will be pivotal in charting the course for the next generation of educational spaces.
