Abstract
There have been numerous changes to the design of learning spaces, inviting educators to innovate the way they teach. This chapter focuses on innovation and how this is shaping practices in primary and secondary schools with a focus on learning environments. The chapter begins with an examination of the notion of innovation exploring the role of leaders and technology-driven education. The focus of the chapter then shifts to frameworks that are used to guide teachers' knowledge looking at the technological pedagogical content knowledge (TPACK) framework and the technology, pedagogy, content, and spaces (TPeCS) knowledge framework. The focus then moves to explore innovative learning environments and the innovative practices occurring in them with a consideration of pedagogy and flexibility. This is then followed by recommendations for further research.
