Swinburne
Learning
Spaces

Swinburne
Defining Learning Spaces
Physical, blended or virtual
learning environments that
enhance learning
Physical, blended or virtual
‘areas’ that motivate a
learner to learn

Swinburne
Defining Learning Spaces
Spaces where both
teachers and learners
optimise the perceived
and actual affordances
of the space; and
Spaces that promote
authentic learning
interactions (Keppell
& Riddle, 2012, 2013).

Swinburne
Seamless
Learning

Swinburne
Seamless Learning
Continuity of learning
across a combination of
locations, times,
technologies or social
settings
(Sharples, et al, 2012,
2013).

Personalised
Learning

Swinburne
Personalised Learning
I define personalised
learning as the knowledge,
skills and attitudes that
enable learning and act as
a catalyst to empower the
learner to continue to learn
(Keppell, 2015)

Swinburne
Knowledge, Skills and Attitudes
Knowledge is now co-
created
Skills form a basis for
learning
Attitudes influence beliefs
and behaviours
Growth mindset (Dweck,
2006)
Openly seek challenge

Swinburne
Authentic
Assessment

Swinburne
Learning-oriented Assessment
Assessment tasks
as learning tasks
Student
involvement in
assessment
processes
Forward-looking
feedback

Swinburne
Assessment Tasks as Learning Tasks
Assessment tasks
determine student effort
Tasks should require
distribution of student time
and effort (Gibbs &
Simpson, 2004)

Swinburne
Student Involvement in Assessment
Students begin to learn
about assessment
Students begin to
determine the quality of
their own work

Swinburne
Feedback as Feedforward
Feedback should be timely
and with a potential to be
acted upon (Gibbs &
Simpson, 2004)

Blended
Learning

Swinburne
Blended Learning
nThe blurring of face-to-face
learning and teaching and online
learning is a significant shift for
both learners and teachers.
nThe growing acceptance that
learning occurs in different
‘places’ presents both exciting
and challenging opportunities for
higher education.

Flexible Learning
Flexible learning” provides
opportunities to improve
the student learning
experience through
flexibility in time, pace,
place, mode of study,
teaching approach, forms
of assessment and
staffing.

Swinburne
Blended & Flexible Learning
Blended and flexible
learning” is a design
approach that examines
the relationships between
flexible learning
opportunities, in order to
optimise student
engagement (Keppell,
2010, p. 3; Garrison &
Vaughan, 2008).

Swinburne
Learning Designs
Enabling blends
Address issues of access
and equity.
Enhancing blends
Incremental changes to
the pedagogy.
Transforming blends
Transformation of the
pedagogy (Graham,
2006).

Swinburne
Forms of Blended Learning
Activity-level blending
Unit/Subject/Course-level
blending
Course/Program/Degree-
level blending
Institutional-level blending
(Graham, 2006).

Swinburne
Interactions
Interactive learning (learner-to-content)
Networked learning (learner-to-learner; learner-
to-teacher)
Student-generated content (learner-as-
designers).
Connected students (knowledge is in the
network)
Learning-oriented assessment (assessment-as-
learning) (Moore, 1989; Keppell, 2014).

Disaggregation
“One of the cornerstones of the OERu philosophy is
that the components of higher education that are
traditionally packaged together in a single
institution can be disaggregated and provided by
different institutions”
(McGreal, Conrad, Murphy, Witthaus, & Mackintosh
2014, p.127).
