Shift from belief-based, implicit approaches to design-based, explicit
approaches
Encourages reflective, scholarly practices
Promotes sharing and discussion
A Research-Based Design approach to creation and
support of courses
6Definition
A methodology for enabling teachers/designers to make more informed decisions in how they go
about designing learning activities and interventions, which is pedagogically informed
and makes effective use of appropriate resources and technologies. This includes the design of
resources and individual learning activities right up to curriculum-level design. A key principle is to help make the design process more explicit and
shareable. Learning design as an area of research and development includes both gathering
empirical evidence to understand the design process, as well as the development of a range of
learning design resources, tools and activities.

E-learning papers special issue
Background Potential of social and participatory media Plethora of new technologies and OER but little uptake Range of issues (technical, pedagogical and
organisational) Focus
How can learning interventions be represented? Implications of new media for learners, teachers &
institutions? What new pedagogies are emerging? How are OER being design, used & repurposed? What are the implications of free resources, tools &
courses?
1. Typologies of learning design
LD as: concept, process and product
Example: A virtual field history trip in LAMS
Eva Dobozy
2. Patterns to design TEL scenarios
Importance of more formal LD representations
Example: application to teaching computing curriculum
Patterns as mediators between pedagogy and technology Félix Buendía-García
José Vte. Benlloch-Dualde
3. Students as designers
Challenges traditional transmission modes of pedagogy
Requires teachers to give some control to students
Describes two case studies
Exploiting potential of social media
Encourages deeper engagement in the learning process Leanne Cameron
MiriamTanti
4. Collaborative Constructive Participation
Application of well established pedagogical principles: Community of learners, Community of Practice, socio-constructivism, dialogic learning, and knowledge building
Consists of a 3-level assessment tool for web-based discussions Ligorio M. Beatrice
Cucchiara Stefania
5. Knowledge building
Action research on use of Web 2.0 tools in the classroom
Knowledge building enables student to be active participants
Gail Casey
6. Invitational online learning environments
Importance of respect, trust, intentionality, and optimism
Reports on. Arts-based learning interventions like Reflective Poetry, Minute at the Movies Analysis, “Our Community” Soap Scenes, and Theme Songs
Inexpensive, adaptable interventions enhance learning environments by encouraging human connections and creativity

Questions
Is there a tension between LD as a creative process and - LD as precision?
Does visualising design make it more explicit and sharable?
Could LD design as a methodology be a means of achieving educational transformation through technology?
