The Use Of Pedagogical Profiles To Establish An Educationally Centric Approach To The Management And Discovery Of Teaching And Learning Support Resources

The Use Of Pedagogical Profiles To Establish An Educationally Centric Approach To The Management And Discovery Of Teaching And Learning Support Resources Alan Masson, Philip Turbitt, Karen Evans and James Gheel

Aim : “promote, facilitate and reward the adoption of a “ learner centred ” reflective practice approach to the development of teaching and learning, in particular wrt the use of e-learning technologies”
Cultural challenge : effecting changes in “teaching” practices - key to learning experience
* CETL(NI): Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (Northern Ireland)

Conceptual model of CIES tools and services

Silos of information sources Aggregated information provided to silos of activity (modules) or practice (pedagogy)

Connectable Services?
Student cohort data
Teaching and learning case studies
Educational support resources and services
Models of Practice
Available e-learning tools (directory)
Content digital repositories
Traditionally hosted in silo-ised systems

Achieving Connected-ness
Use of lightweight educational data profiling across systems and services:
Schemas
EduPerson, IMS
Glossaries and ontologies
JISC / HE Academy educational terminologies
Closed Lists
E-learning tools
Closed lists of educational interactions and verbs (HLM)

Benefits of this approach
Focus on educational value of these institutional assets
Can offer connections to associated resources RELEVANT to the user context
cf amazon recommends
Reuse and repurposing of services by support departments and services
RSS, cross / deep linking
Raises awareness of and simplifies access to these assets

Example practitioner use cases
Case study  e-tool directory  staff development course  practice exchange  implementation
E-tool directory  case study  practice exchange  staff development  change in curriculum
Change in cohort  case study  e-tool directory  staff development  practice exchange  implementation
Inclusivity : Staff development  implementation  case study  push RSS feed  effective awareness raising and dissemination

Implementation progress to date
Institutional adoption of core applications
Hybrid Learning Model
Practice Exchange Repository*
Educational Resource Database*
E-tools Database*
Demonstrable integration between*

In summary
The use of lightweight pedagogical profiles to educational assets can:
Support the establishment of an educationally centric approach to the management of teaching and learning support resources
Transform the opportunities to raise awareness of, access to and usage of these key educational assets
