Design for learning in open education

Activity

Survey the following open courses to observe and compare how aspects of design for learning (sequence/sampling, support, tool and resource curation, learner pathways, demonstration of learning outcomes, credit options, and potential reuse) have been approached: The Open University's Open Education The UK Association for Learning Technology's (ALT) Open Course in Technology Enhanced Learning (ocTEL) The Open Educational Resources University's (OERu) Open Content Licensing for Educators (OCL4Ed)

Reading

The following readings will provide valuable background for Task 1: Curation and peer feedback. Read the short paper Engaging higher education students via digital curation (pdf) (Antonio, Martin & Stagg, 2012) for an overview of curation and curation tools. For further practical guidance and accounts of curation in learning and teaching, read Digital curation: Opportunities for learning, teaching, research and professional development (pdf) (Flintoff, Mellow & Clark, 2014).

Discussion

In a message on our Wiggio group site, briefly outline how you would approach design for learning to support open educational practices (OEP), giving emphasis to curation, OER integration and co-creation activities with learners. If starting this discussion, please use a subject line identifying the topic e.g. 'My approach to design for learning for OEP'. Others can then reply under this thread.
