2. IMS Learning Design for CSCL
•
Customizable, interoperable vs. “hardwired” implementations
-
Study of the IMS Learning Design specification for
expressing CSCL macro-scripts mechanisms

Coded cases that significantly featured the requirements (macroscripts in the literature, CL best practices: Jigsaw, Pyramid,
Simulation, Think-Pair-Share…)
possibilities of the notation (LD
elements and attributes)
limitations, pointing out the need of
specifying the group-services

4. Design process, authoring tool
•
•
Design process based on
patterns (CLFPs), as IMS-LD
templates: can be selected,
combined, refined
Implemented in the
editor

6. Embedding assessment activities
•
Interoperability of IMS LD with IMS QTI
-
In traditional Test-based activities
-
Also extending the interaction contexts of question-items
and test representations
(scores of tests can affect the learning flow)
-
Application to Web Maps
QTIMaps:
Answering test
questions
interacting
with maps
(drawing, ordering
markers, etc.)
QuesTInSitu:
Routes of
geo-located
questions

7. Teacher communities, multiple
types of learning designs
Combined support and mechanisms for:
-
the social sharing and co-edition of learning design
solutions within closed communities of teachers
-
integration of existing web learning design editors
Several iterations, controlled and real studies:
-
Integrated Human Biology courses (UPF),
Biologia en Context (network of Catalan high schools),
Integrated Journalism course (UPF) …

9. First prototype of the ILDE available
http://ilde.upf.edu
The ILDE supports cooperation within a "Learning design" community in which
its members share and co-create multiple types of learning design solutions (LdS)
covering the complete lifecycle:
from conceptualizing (working on/with starting points for designs; this type of
LdS may facilitate the understanding of the context and the expected users, or
may deal with abstractions and drafts around design elements and their
interconnections),
to authoring (producing a detailed definition of a learning design which is ready to
be used with learners),
and implementing (applying an authored learning design with a particular group
of students using a specific virtual learning environment and set of tools).
The ILDE integrates existing learning design tools, including LdShake, OULDI
templates, WebCollage, and Glue!PS. Current development work towards the
second prototype includes the integration of OpenGLM.
10. Current work
• 3 pilots
• Understand relevance of use cases in other contexts
• Towards 2n version of the ILDE
• Ongoing PhD Thesis, Jonathan Chacón:
• Life of designs or “learning design family”
• Support “learning design projects”
