and watching demos or videos Acquisition Learning through acquisition is what learners are doing when they are listening to a lecture or podcast, reading from books or websites, and watching demos or videos

Collaboration Learning through collaboration embraces mainly discussion, practice, and production. Building on investigations and acquisition it is about taking part in the process of knowledge building itself

Collaboration Reading books, papers; Conventional method Digital technology small group project. small group projects using online forumsM08, wikisM15, chatM23 for discussing others’ outputs. building joint digital outputs using databasesM47, glossariesM24, wikisM15. discussing others’ outputs. building joint output.

and/or from their peers Discussion Learning through discussion requires the learner to articulate their ideas and questions, and to challenge and respond to the ideas and questions from the teacher, and/or from their peers

Learning through investigation guides the learner to explore, compare and critique the texts, documents and resources that reflect the concepts and ideas being taught

Investigation in a range of materials and resources; Using conventional methods to collect Comparing texts, searching and evaluating information and ideas. Conventional method Digital technology using text-based study guides online search via the Library Search blockM05. analysing the ideas and information in a range of materials and resources analysing ideas and information from digital resources accessed via the UCL Reading ListM10. using conventional methods to collect and analyse data sharing & analysing digital texts with peers in a databaseM47. comparing texts searching and evaluating information and ideas raising queries about concepts using hot questionM18. comparing digital texts in an online discussionM08.

Practice Learning through practice enables the learner to adapt their actions to the task goal, and use the feedback to improve their next action. Feedback may come from self-reflection, from peers, from the teacher, or from the activity itself, if it shows them how to improve the result of their action in relation to the goal

Production Learning through production is the way the teacher motivates the learner to consolidate what they have learned by articulating their current conceptual understanding and how they used it in practice

Production Reading books, papers; Conventional method Digital technology producing articulations using: statements. essays. reports. accounts. designs. performances. artefacts. animations. models. videos. producing shared digital documents in wikisM15, discussion forumsM08. performances captured on video (via LecturecastM27). final assessments submitted for peer markingM37 or marking by tutorsM09. photos shared in Lightbox GalleryM54. images, videos, animations, other artefacts shared in databasesM47. blogsM16. e-portfolios using MyPortfolio.
