  1. Learning technologies and course design Module 5: Course design and course development Claire Gordon and Jane Secker With thanks to Steve Ryan and Simon Atkinson

  2. Overview • Reflect on the role of tools and technologies in learning and course design • Explore and evaluate a range of tools that might be useful in your learning and course design • Consider the underlying assumptions about teaching and learning practice associated with the choiceof particular tools and technologies

  3. Learning design vs course design • Focus today is on learning design rather than course design • Learning Design describes the educational process, not just courseware but the whole teaching/learning experience • The process of learning design refers to: • designing units of learning, • learning activities • and / or the learning environment.

  4. For discussion • What tools / technologies have you used this year in your teaching? • What tools / technologies do you think you might want to integrate into your course and learning designs for Module 5? • What does our choice of media say about our approach or philosophy to teaching and learning?

  5. Simple tools and technologies to facilitate course / learning design • Moodle • EU452 • LSE100 • PowerPoint • Teaching history with technology • Economics example • Prezi • Maths is not linear • Effective and creative history examples

  6. Other tools to facilitate course / session design • Glomaker • Maths example • GLO Gallery • LAMS • LAMS Tutorial • Phoebe • History example • Climate change example

  7. Evaluating the tools • What do you like / dislike about this tool? • How could the tools help in the design process? • Is there an underlying philosophy / approach to teaching and learning implicit in the tool? • How could the tools help you achieve your intended learning outcomes?

  8. The Conversational Framework

  9. Laurillard’s conversational framework • Diana Laurillard (1993, 2002) suggests that there are four main aspects of the teaching-learning process and that different educational media can be analysed (and used) in terms of these dimensions. These are: • Teacher's concepts • Teacher's constructed learning environment • Student's concepts • Student's specific actions (related to learning tasks)
