ILC – a VERY innovative centre for learning

It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent, but the one most responsive to change.
– Charles Darwin

The Innovative Learning Centre, housed within the Faculty of Education at the University of British Columbia – Okanagan, is a space for academics, educators and industry to come together and design the change they want to see for learning.  It is a learning lab to foster collaboration and imagination.

Please visit the ILC site – either physically in Engineering, Management and Education building (UBC O) or virtually at https://blogs.ubc.ca/centre/
