Provide space, furniture and technology as part of Media Resources such as a Maker Space / Exploration Lab to demonstrate research discoveries; ideate, create, prototype, and test. Look for programmatic synergies to place Specialized Labs adjacent to Media Resources.
Is there a dedicated maker space / exploration lab with storage and display space to support project-based learning?
Is there furniture and technology to support both self-directed and collaborative research?
Are there adjacent labs to support a variety of functions, from specialized science to robotics and everything in between?

Because the demonstration phase of Inquiry-Based Learning models (Project-Based Learning, Problem Based Learning, Challenge Based Learning, Design Thinking, Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) includes ideation, prototyping, and testing, consider building placement near or adjacent to visual arts and makerspace to encompass the entire inquiry cycle.
