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.
