Abstract: Behavior and process of learning affect its results. Learning behavior, according to an view of educational circles, is often conditioned by some external factors. That is why a “new normal” comes out when such factors have changed and such a change tends to be stable. For an adaptation, it is necessary to reconstruct a new learning ecology in which the digital existence corresponding to the digital age has changed the modern learning relationship and hybrid learning will become the basic feature of this ecological environment. Therefore, a new learning space should be built up accordingly. Such a space should be adaptive, i.e. it provides learners with not only adaptive learning support that meets their needs, but also an improvement of the adaptive level of the learning space after heavy use. The adaptability of learning space lies not in a pursuit of “individual adaptation”, but in that of a “class adaptation”. In practice, we need to fully respect the nonlinear structure of learning, cast attention to its attribute of whole space, and constantly optimize its degree and level.
