The current crisis is an opportunity: A reshaping of learning environments is necessary to transform education into more engaging, even delightful, learning and teaching. Current online learning platforms are not designed to support Flow and other experiences central to learning. This transdisciplinary interactive round table is a call for visionaries to transform online learning tools using insights from visual and performing artists experienced in creating engaging, immersive online experiences for higher education. It will emphasize techniques and concepts from multiple arts fields that can be incorporated into current systems, and that will influence the design of future learning systems.
