46. Conclusion
• Structured guidance to think
about design
• The power of visualisation
• Beyond content to activities
and experience
• Iterative, creative and messy
• Making designs explicit
• Social media to foster
communication and
collaboration
47. Final thoughts
• Participatory and social media enable new forms of
communication and collaboration
• Communities in these spaces are complex and
distributed
• Learners and teachers need to develop new digital
literacy skills to harness their potential
• We need to rethinkhow we design, support and assess
learning
• Open, participatory and social media can provide
mechanisms for us to share and discuss teaching and
research ideas in new ways
• We are seeing a blurring of boundaries:
teachers/learners, teaching/research, real/virtual
spaces, formal/informal modes of communication and
