Designing with Organization in Mind Chapter 4 Smith, 2008, p.47-61 G. Andrew Page, Ph.D e-Learning Project Development Session 5

A little theory: Pedagogical Approaches to keep in Mind --Cognitive apprenticeship (the process of moving from novice to expert within a given set of practices) – legitimate peripheral participation (tacit learning similar to that involved in internships or residencies) --Experiences central, rather thaninformation as pre-digested experience(for assimilation or synthesis) --Knowledge is situated in a contextand distributed across a community(rather than located within an individual:with vs. from) Post Marshall McLuhan era Media shape their messages Media shape their participants

Preparing for practice in a digital age Introducing technology into learning and teaching appears at first to be a matter of applying a new tool to an old task: ‘What can I achieve with it, what support will I require, what are the pitfalls, and will this tool be better for my purpose than others I have used?’
