The 30sec version Learning design - the solution to world hunger. We had a great workshop in London last October. All the workshop contributions are available at ld-grid.org/workshops/ASLD11 ld-grid.org/workshops/ASLD11 Our review / summary paper is at researchinlearningtechnology.net/index.php/rlt/article/view/19196/html researchinlearningtechnology.net/index.php/rlt/article/view/19196/html

So, what shall we talk about? What is this Learning Design thing you mention? Why should I bother? What are the big issues? Where do I go from here?

Learning Design is.. Learning http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning Acquiring new, or modifying existing, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or Preferences. May involve synthesizing different types of information. Design http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Design the creation of a plan or convention for the construction of an object or a system.

Learning – is.. A computer program is said to learn from experience E with respect to some class of tasks T and performance measure P, if its performance at tasks in T, as measured by P, improves with experience E. Tom M. Mitchell, 1997

Learning := Acquiring new, or modifying existing, knowledge, behaviors, skills, values, or preferences. May involve synthesizing different types of information. A computer program is said to learn from experience E with respect to some class of tasks T and performance measure P, if its performance at tasks in T, as measured by P, improves with experience E. Tom M. Mitchell, 1997 Making meanings (references, connections, constructs) from text (systems of signs) in context (material, social) (Lemke; Kress; others)

Learning: what? About – Physiology, anatomy, pharmacy To do – Diagnose, treat, monitor To be – A medical doctor, nurse, paramedic
9
Learning: how? From – Teachers, More capable peers (MCPs), Books.. With – Self, peers, MCPs... By – Reading, Reciting, Attending, Practising, Doing, Making, Designing..
10
Design := the creation of a plan or convention for the construction of an object or a system. everyone designs who devises courses of action aimed at changing existing situations into desired ones (Simon, 1969) Objects with intent Bad design is.. just letting things happen. John Hockenberry (ted.com) Conversation with the materials of a situation Donald Schon a mutual learning process between users and designers Pascal Béguin
11
Craft = making stuff Design = making stuff better Change in context Changin' context (Luckin) Value driven Change oriented Functionally organised Context dependent Representation sensitive Iterative Responsive Creative Deliberate Social Objects that change practice
12
Utility, firmness, delight (Utilitas, firmitas, venustas) - Vitruvius* Utility – Functional, existing states → desired Firmness – Deliberate – Laurillard: teachers as design scientists – Design inquiry Delight – Are we having fun? *: HT Mike Sharples
13
Why bother? Education is.. Knowledge transmission Behaviour modulation or - Designed learning: Creating the opportunities for learners to achieve their objectives in a complex, dynamic, challenging environment.
14
Learning Design := The deliberate creative practice of devising new practices, plans of activity, resources and tools aimed at achieving particular educational aims in a given situation.
15
the issues Representations – capturing context, imagining change – musical score, architectural drawing, LD … ? Methods – Firmness, taming complexity Practices – Teachers as learning designers, learners as designers of own learning. Tools – For all of the above
16
Need... Design for learning design A design science of learning design
