  1. Teaching the Human Liver with Learning Design Luis A. Álvarez González. lalvarez@uach.cl Sergio Triviños. strivinos@yahoo.com Sandra Bucarey Arriagada. sbucarey@uach.cl Grupo de Investigación en Tecnologías de Aprendizaje (GITA) 2008 European LAMS Conference Cadiz, Spain

  2. Topics • Introduction • Learning Object: Human Liver • A Methodology to Build Learning Design • Implementation in LAMS • Moodle as part of the team • Conclusions and future work www.gita.cl

  3. Introduction • Careers of the Faculty of Medicine are doing methodological changes in the T&L process. • Innovation in curricular structure. • Software technologies and multimedial resources to provide “virtual organs”. • Using LO and LD in teaching. • Many people involved in the process. • LAMS and Moodle were used to make learning designs. www.gita.cl

  4. LO Human Liver • Used since 2004 to teach in different curses. • Validated and tested. • Participation of students in the development. www.gita.cl

  5. LO Human Liver • It was divided in different parts according to each career. www.gita.cl

  6. A Methodology to build learning designs • Lesson Plan: • Metadata: title, author, roles, learning objectives, requirements, materials, etc. • Core: divided in acts. • Steps: • Teacher builds a lesson plan like as narrative text • Using LAMS builds sequences. www.gita.cl

  7. A Methodology to build learning designs • Three learning design were built: • two for Nursing and Obstetrics and • one for Medicine. • Example: Lesson Plan for Medicine. www.gita.cl

  8. Implementation in LAMS • The same methodology was used to develop the three learning designs. • Sequence in LAMS for Medicine: www.gita.cl

  9. Moodle and LAMS as one • Integration Moodle-LAMS is well known. • Advantages for us: • User management. • Advantages of LAMS and Moodle together. • Only used one platform for teaching. • Both platforms are Open Source. Author view www.gita.cl

  10. Moodle and LAMS as one Learner view www.gita.cl

  11. Conclusions • If the concept of Learning Design is not used by teachers, then lesson plans are a good methodology. • Learning design are a complement for traditional lessons. • Learning objects developed with collaboration of students improve learning design. • A hard work and a long time is required for make a Learning Design. • Users of Moodle appreciate to work with Moodle-LAMS integration.

  12. Future Work • To build learning objects and then Learning Designs for the main organs of the human body. For example: kidney. • Participation of Students as learning designers. www.gita.cl
