Learning path designmethodologyAccess • Gentle but interesting introduction to the online learning experience • Motivation through comfort with the online environment Socialisation • Creating a sense of ‘learning community’ through early opportunities to interact with other learners. • Activities encourage dialogue and sense of group experience Formal Learning Experiences • Asynchronous and real time activities • Learners require two types of interaction: interaction with the content and interaction with people Knowledge construction • Taking the concepts from formal materials and interaction with others to create their own learning. • Achieved through application of learning in the workplace, discussion and joint knowledge development. Development • Learners actively contribute to their own learning and that of the group. • They build on ideas explored through the learning path and can adapt them to meet the individual needs of their context

Editor's Notes
- #3 Simple hosted platform and Learning Path design to cope with a complex subject that needed ‘chunking’ up to make learning objectives achievable A capable partner able to cope with the complexity of the subject matter – it’s tricky stuff! An integrated approach that made learning accessible when needed as well as learning on induction feasible Construction of a learning scaffold with opportunity to go “off-piste” individually or with others to explore different interest areas via discussion boards as well as within the community site Ability to include voices from within the company, to both support and champion the use of this sophisticated tool as well as the voice of experience of planning

- #10 So we took the brief and the materials supplied on QI and applied best practice in creation of high value online learning programmes. We use Professor Gilly Salmon’s model as a backbone for our learning pathways methodology.
- #11 Traditional classroom learning tended to be contained in a very short time frame, with little focus on follow-up actions following the course. Total “touch” time usually under 1 day! Retention relatively low, and no support for integrating learning into day-to-day work “eLearning 1.0” Introduced enormous cost savings and efficiency compared to classroom learning (and being blunt this was the primary driver for a lot of orgs) If done well, increased retention by extending the learning timeframe, focusing more on follow-up and pre-work and better delivery of learning content “eLearning 2.0” The next generation of eLearning is not just about “delivery learning online”. There are a lot of well designed eLearning modules and courses. We can already finitely control the “content” in an elearning programme, but what about the “timing”. The focus is now on fully integrating learning into the workplace. This can be done by three things: Designing clear follow-up action points at timed intervals following the learning event and use technology to deliver these Provide web 2.0 style social tools to allow learners to work together Extend the total timeframe of the learning to encourage retention and integration
- #12 This design is easily built upon and leaves the question of tutor/mentor open.
- #19 Membership usually voluntary, connecting people around a subject. Need strong sponsorship, leadership and facilitation to make them work Communities can be strategic or emergent. Emergent approach taken to date, mostly based on centres of excellence and corporate functions. Support framework developed including facilitator training, launch workshop, benefits evaluation…..
