4. What is Learning Design all about? ­A language to describe education ­Curriculum ­Course ­Lesson ­What is it not? ­Programming language ­A instructional method ­A guaranty for good education ­Flexible in its presentation ­Learner centred

5. Short experience ­We will simulate a short role play ­Designing a house ­Roles? ­Dependencies? ­Structure

6. Analysis ­Play ­Act ­Role-parts ­Activities (structure) ­Sequence ­Selection ­Environments ­Services ­E-mail ­Conference ­Monitor ­Play ­Properties ­conditions

7. Theatre metaphor

8. Forget about the levels ­The levels are only useful for technicians not for educators… ­But still it helps a little

9. The basics Level A Have your ALFANET editor ready ­Three types of activities: ­Learning activity ­Support activity ­Activity structure ­Two types of roles ­Learner ­Staff ­The environment ­Learning objects ­Services

10. Relation ­Learning activities ­A learner learns by doing activities ­Primarily for the learners ­Core of the education ­Activity structure ­Sometimes the activities need to be carried out in a specified order or the learner may choose what to do. ­Environment ­To perform an activity some materials might be needed ­The learner needs to communicate with others ­Support activity ­Learner or staff with special activity to help (other) learners.

11. The dynamics Level B ­Properties can determine how a learner progresses through the course or what is made visible. ­Activities ­Content within an activity ­Completion of activities, acts, play and unit of learning can be made dependable on properties ­Services are given extra possibilities ­Conditions can depend on Calculations with properties

12. Communication Level C ­Notifications inform (someone in) a role that something has happened ­Depending on completion of ­Some activity ­Some condition with properties

13. Learning by Doing ­Go to components ­Go to Roles

14. Seeing is believing Go to: educontent.ou.nl Login with: ou-student1 Pw:student

15. What did you see? Activities ­Single activities ­Activity structure ­Sequence ­Structures within structures (nesting) Environment ­Learning objects ­Nested environments

16. Properties ­Fill-in forms Content control What more did you see?

17. Properties ­Selection forms Content Types And ?

18. Learning by doing ­Now it’s your turn 1.Take the course outline you are planning to create 2.Add to that the environments (learning objects and services) 3.Complete the course till level A

19. Your course ­Course structure ­Think of what who needs what at what moment ­(Environments) ­Do you already have the content? ­What content relates to what activity Platform pre- assessment Introduction Module A First lesson Second lesson Module assessment Introduction Module B First lesson Second lesson Module assessment Detect learning style validate Failed Open continuation valid Course pre-assessment Determine priorities and non obligatory and long/short Select module N th Module First lesson L Module assessment First lesson S Validate answers, comment, change long/short and self controlled /system controlled Passed, not last module Last module Detect overtime, failures Grade and correct LEARNER ENVIRONEMENTTUTOR

21. Diving into the deep

22. You wanted properties Here they come ­Properties come in threes 1.In the Components 2.In the Play 3.In the content

23. In the components ­This is the place where the properties are declared

24. Four types of properties 1.Local properties ­Used within the unit of learning ­Same for every user in a run ­Different for another run 2.Global properties ­Used outside a unit of learning ­Defined in one UOL and used in another one 3.Personal properties ­Owned by a person ­Can be local or global 4.Role properties ­Owned by a role ­Always local

25. Components in more detail your name company or organisation email option [choose] thematic historical

26. In the Play

27. Play in more detail thematic thematic

28. In the Content

29. Content in more detail Via which route do you want to study this course? To set the property You have chosen the <view-property xmlns="http://www.imsglobal.org/xsd/imsld_v1p0" href="id-D996B9E6-4EA2-11D5-8D44-0004AC39A2F5" property-of="self" view="value"/> route. About halfway through you will be given the opportunity to switch to the other route. You will be given guidance on this using 'early reflections'. To view the chosen property

30. How to show or hide parts of the content? Content shown Hidden content

31. Use of a class in conditions [make a choice] Conditions Action

32. With user in control Let the user have the option to expand or collapse the item

33. Without user control BeforeAfter

34. Work on your course ­Define how you want to make use of a property ­What comes in the components ­What comes in the play ­What comes in the content

35. Time to look at what you did yesterday http://rtd.softwareag.es/alfaneta
