What is Learning Design all about?

A language to describe education Curriculum Course Lesson

What is it not? Programming language A instructional method A guaranty for good education

Flexible in its presentation Learner centred

Short experience

We will simulate a short role play Designing a house

Roles? Dependencies? Structure

Analysis

Play Act

Role-parts Activities (structure)

Sequence Selection

Forget about the levels

The levels are only useful for technicians not for educators…

But still it helps a little

The basics Level AHave your ALFANET editor ready

Three types of activities: Learning activity Support activity Activity structure

Two types of roles Learner Staff

The environment Learning objects Services

Relation

Learning activities A learner learns by doing activities Primarily for the learners Core of the education

Activity structure Sometimes the activities need to be carried out in a

specified order or the learner may choose what to do. Environment

To perform an activity some materials might be needed The learner needs to communicate with others

Support activity Learner or staff with special activity to help (other)

learners.

The dynamics Level B

Properties can determine how a learner progresses through the course or what is made visible. Activities Content within an activity

Completion of activities, acts, play and unit of learning can be made dependable on properties

Services are given extra possibilities Conditions can depend on Calculations with

properties

Communication Level C

Notifications inform (someone in) a role that something has happened

Depending on completion of Some activity Some condition with properties

Learning by doing

Now it’s your turn

1. Take the course outline you are planning to create

2. Add to that the environments (learning objects and services)

3. Complete the course till level A

Your course

Course structure Think of what who needs

what at what moment (Environments)

Do you already have the content?

Diving into the deep

You wanted properties

Here they come Properties come in threes

1. In the Components

2. In the Play

3. In the content

In the components

This is the place where the properties are declared

Four types of properties

1. Local properties Used within the unit of learning Same for every user in a run Different for another run

2. Global properties Used outside a unit of learning Defined in one UOL and used in another one

3. Personal properties Owned by a person Can be local or global

4. Role properties Owned by a role Always local
