Thank Willex. In one resource (https://www.edutopia.org/blog/visualizing-21st-century-classroom-design-mary-wade ) Mary Wade encourages us teachers to utilise the existing classrooms and turning them into 21st Century classrooms. She outlines elements of 21 Century classrooms and shows how teachers can visualize and implement them.

Thanks for your contribution.The cite gives insight on extending learning beyond the classroom.

Wonderful resource. It does not only talk about breaking down the walls, it goes on to tell us other wonderful practices like classes becoming collaborative.
