Explore our studio


The Learning Futures Studios take on projects that explore what education will look like in the next 3 to 5 years. By working with partners we make proofs of concept (PoCs) and minimum viable products (MVPs).
 
The studios are made up of specialist guilds with up to 10 students employed in each. Students can be from any discipline and make up diverse project teams united by a set of shared values and goals. The projects explore the future of learning, and new ways of working with technology to improve education.

About our Guilds

At Learning Futures, we believe the future of learning is built by learners as creators, makers, producers and inventors, encouraged by collaboration and supported by social networks. We practice these values by supporting Guild groups that work creatively across projects within Learning Futures. Each Guild consolidates maker around a common interest or craft, encouraging a shared culture of knowledge creation. 

Our goal is to grow each other into professional experts who know tools, workflows, theory and influence inside and out. This means understanding advanced cutting-edge tools and techniques; processes, teaming and information flow; applying new information to a base of structured knowledge; and realizing the valuable, positive social impact our models contribute towards advancing diversity, equity and inclusion in the fields of XR. 

Guild Structure

Each Guild is intended to help grow its members into creative problem solvers, accomplished via community upskilling through shared project work, tutorials, workshops, best practices documentation and Guild-led trainings. 

Members who make up the team, Coordinators who facilitate structure and culture, as well as Guild Professionals who offer technical and professional guidance as needed.
