7Cs Learning Design Generic Workshop Slides

The 7Cs of Learning Design: A Pilot Workshop Slides by Gabi Witthaus, based on two Carpe Diem-OULDI workshops:one with SAIDE (South African Institute for Distance Education), and one with the Beyond Distance Research Alliance, March-April 2012.

In course teams, before the workshop: • Create your own Course Mission Statement • Write+-6 high-level outcome statements for your course • Commit to whole process, including putting your hands on VLE E-tivity 8: E-tivity 1: Consider Action Planning your Course Features E-tivity 7: Put it all E-tivity 2: Develop together on the VLE/ your Course Map LMS Reality check by learner/ peer E-tivity 6: Develop E-tivity 3: Develop your your e-tivities Activity Profile E-tivity 4: Develop E-tivity 5: Do a Learning your Storyboard (including Design Resource Audit assessment plans)Note: This workshop is structured around eight e-tivities, which are done in course teams. This diagram gives an overview of the e-tivities. Each e-tivity will require frequent cross-checking and updating of outputs of earlier e-tivities, especially those within same-colour groups. E-tivity 8 may leadback to any or all of the outputs of previous e-tivities. The whole flow can be done in a face-to-face workshop (2-3 full days) or online (over 2-3weeks). If done online, the e-tivities are done by course teams asynchronously, and there is a synchronous session in between each e-tivity to reflecton the previous e-tivity and prepare for the next one. Whether conducted face-to-face or online, all e-tivities are done in a Wiki, which is created forparticipants before the workshop begins.

E-tivity 4: Developyour Storyboard (including assessment plans)

Brainstorm: Learning Outcomes [Participants to add to these columns]“Soft” outcome verbs “Hard” outcome verbsAppreciate ArgueUnderstand Create

Assessment plans (to be discussed in course teams)1. WHAT must be assessed?2. We would like to assess in THESE WAYS (e.g. through an exam, assignment, etc):3. We would rather NOT assess in these ways:4. We will exploit technology for formative and summative assessment by… (e.g. by setting up a multiple-choice exam on our VLE; by providing formative feedback on e-tivities):5. The work done during the course will contribute to formative and summative assessment in these ways:6. Formative feedback will be offered by tutors and peers in these ways and using these technologies:7. Peer-assessment will be built into our course as follows:
