Educational Facilities
We support the creation of an educational environment
where students "want to learn" and find it "easy to learn."
When it comes to study desks, ITOKI is the name that comes to mind. As the first company in Japan to release steel desks for general households, ITOKI has long been dedicated to supporting children's learning. Our commitment goes beyond home products, extending to the creation of spaces in educational facilities. By combining our long-standing commitment to learning and education with advanced expertise in space creation, ITOKI has supported the development of numerous educational environments, including universities.
Based on our accumulated experience and knowledge, we have created educational spaces where students feel that they want to study and find them easy to learn. We propose creating an educational environment that aligns with the changing times and the evolving nature of educational facilities.
A space where you can unlock your potential and nurture growth, whether alone or with others
What will be required of educational facilities in the future is to create environments that unlock people's potential.
As educational facilities play a role in developing the human resources needed for the future, universities are establishing new science, engineering, and agricultural departments, as well as many new laboratories and research institutes. ITOKI has a rich track record of support in such situations. We offer an unparalleled synergy that combines functionality meticulously designed for ease of use with comfort.
To draw out the strengths of each student and nurture their growth, the foundation is a space that energizes and inspires.
"Collaboratively or independently." "Expand your ideas, organize your thoughts." ITOKI supports a fruitful school life and the creation of a safe and secure learning environment by designing spaces where students can choose the optimal setting for their learning needs.
ITOKI creates an educational environment that brings out your strengths
ACTIVITY LEARNING PLACE to increase students' autonomy
"ACTIVITY LEARNING PLACE'' is a concept that enables students to select the most suitable learning environment based on their activities.
In today's era, where autonomy and the ability to produce results are required, what is needed is the capability to execute processes that lead to problem-solving. The "ACTIVITY LEARNING PLACE" is a learning environment where students can select the most suitable space for their activities, guiding them toward problem-solving. It’s designed to cultivate the skills needed to succeed in society beyond student life.
7 ACTIVITY SPACES
Sometimes you need to think things through on your own, and other times you need to brainstorm with others. ITOKI proposes seven ACTIVITY SPACES tailored to various learning scenarios.
: Meet and discover themes
This space brings people and information together, supporting the discovery of key themes and issues. It facilitates student interactions through high-density digital and analog information sharing, as well as high tables and shared table formats.
: Think and work alone
This is a space that allows you to maintain focus while being aware of your surroundings, making it ideal for individual study or collaborative tasks.
The symbolic lighting enhances the enjoyment of learning in this space.
: Work/consult with two people
A pair sheet that improves the speed of output and ease of consultation between two people.
When discussing preparations for group work facilitation or exchanging ideas, a dedicated space for 2-person Work allows for conversation without concern for your surroundings.
: A space for everyone to come up with ideas together
This is a space where you can freely write down your ideas, such as deciding on a theme or brainstorming using mind maps.
It is a highly functional space where everyone's ideas can be visualized at the same time using whiteboard surfaces on the tabletop and walls.
: Share/Organize
This is a space where your team can share ideas and work together to refine them towards achieving results.
Create a sense of unity with an easy-to-use booth that allows you to control visibility from those around you. By installing a monitor, you can connect devices such as laptops and collaboratively edit documents while sharing data.
: Create prototypes
This is a space for prototyping in teams, including analog work, creating prototypes, and shooting videos.
It is composed of flexible products with a spacious desk surface and a highly functional top plate, allowing for easy adaptation to different work scenarios based on the output.
: For practice presentation
This space is also suitable for practicing presentations as a team and hearing opinions from those around you before presenting your results.
The space is designed to focus attention on the presenter and displayed content, making it easy to speak. A projector can be used to project materials, allowing for practice that closely simulates the actual session.
An educational space that inspires learning, proposed by space creation professionals
We create a space where students are eager to learn and find it easy to do so, while parents feel confident in their children's learning environment.
ITOKI products are not just about aesthetics or ease of use. We incorporate the unique characteristics of each educational facility to propose thoughtfully designed spaces that foster growth.
In today's educational environments, where it is crucial to deepen thinking through dialogue with others when addressing questions that don't have a single answer, it is essential to create spaces that facilitate smooth communication between students, students and teachers, and among teachers.
Creating a comfortable and conducive learning environment greatly impacts the quality of education.
