The AAHE building has been fully refurbished to accommodate modern classrooms with the latest technology to facilitate a variety of activities within the classroom and online.
The AAHE teaching and learning approach encourages student participation in the learning process, peer to peer learning and ongoing reflection. This is achieved through the curriculum design and through the design of the classrooms which have a standard layout comprising ‘pods’ (groups of six students) that are equipped with large monitors that students can connect to for collaboration and for presentations to each other in the group or to the class as a whole. At the same time, the furniture allows for flexible configurations that support a variety of different learning activities. Abundant writing surfaces on walls are deliberately positioned throughout the classrooms for small team collaborations and breakout activities. The same facilities and design principles apply to all informal study spaces.
Although you will be required to provide your own laptop, we carry additional laptops that are available for loan, and the informal learning spaces are wifi-enabled so that you can connect to staff and digital resources at all times. You will also be provided with access to a contemporary and feature rich online learning environment where you will have access to all your learning resources, content creation tools, collaboration spaces, communications, assessment tasks, remote labs and ep-portfolio, along with many other features.
As AAHE is an institution that specializes in technology, its Library consists mainly of digital resources, comprised of e-subscriptions to journals and e-book acquisitions.
AAHE is committed to accessibility and its building is designed to fully cater to wheelchair access.
