Moodle Roadmap
The likelihood some feature will get
included in Moodle is a function of :
How much it supports our pedagogical focus
Number of votes from existing users
Can it be developed in a generic way to help many
How long it will take to develop
Is it easier just to integrate with something existing
How much developer time is available
Does it blend?

Referent 1
All of us are potential teachers as well as learners - in a true
collaborative environment we are both
- 16. Copyright 2010 © Martin Dougiamas
Referent 2
We learn particularly well from the act of creating or
expressing something for others to see (Papert, Aristotle)
- 17. Copyright 2010 © Martin Dougiamas
Referent 3
We learn by just observing the activity of our peers
(culture)
- 18. Copyright 2010 © Martin Dougiamas
Referent 4
By understanding the contexts of others, we can teach in a
more transformational way (constructivism)
- 19. Copyright 2010 © Martin Dougiamas
Referent 5
A learning environment needs to be flexible and adaptable,
so that it can quickly respond to the changing needs of the
participants within it

What is the simplest possible
pedagogical technique that
promotes all this?
(in my view)
