Update on Learning Design meeting - Pedagogy Forum and Educational Content SIG
This was a joint meeting of the CETIS EC SIG (Educational Content Special Interest Group) and CETIS Pedagogy Forum. It was also supported by the UNFOLD Project and the JISC e-Learning and Pedagogy strand. The theme was learning design: to provide an update of activities to date and also receive input for planned work.
The Meeting was held at the University of Newcastle on Friday 4 March 2005 10am - 4pm (in the Research Beehive, in the Old Library.) See: http://www.ncl.ac.uk/business-directorate/beehive
About the Meeting
The meeting focussed on current projects engaging with learning design in
its broadest sense, not just the IMS
specification. This included presentations
from the UNFOLD project
and several other UK based projects engaging with learning design, plus
an update from the JISC e-Learning and pedagogy
programme. As well as presentations, there was a plenary session on the
future of learning design.
This meeting follows a joint event between the two groups in October 2003, CETIS Learning Design Workshop which may provide a useful starting point for those new to Learning Design
