“SMART LEARNING DESIGN 25” BOARD
The Smart Learning Design 25 board is a useful tool for teachers to design their course from a sustainable and integrated perspective.
It is divided into weeks and supports the design of learning events useful for maximizing student achievement of the Intended Learning Outcomes.
Within the table, learning events are placed over time and in correspondence with the different scenarios that characterize the course:
- Presential: context according to which the lecturer believes that learning events should take place both in presence;
- Extended classroom: context according to which the lecturer believes that learning events can take place both in-presence but if necessary also online;
- Online synchronous: context in which the lecturer believes learning events should be placed in online seminars where everyone participates at the same time;
- Online asynchronous: context in which learning events are based on the enjoyment of digital content or the performance of online tests/activities;
- Autonomous mode: context in which learning events are placed on which the lecturer wants to leave total organizational freedom.
Learning event cards (large and by board)
It is possible to de-structure the learning process into individual moments within which students can act in order to learn. Eight “learning events” have been identified that constitute recognizable units in their occurrence in time and space: low-interactivity content collection, high-interactivity content collection, content elaboration, discussion, practical experience, production and research, retrieval and metacognition.
Learning event cards for board: these are the cards of the exact size to fit on the “Smart Learning Design 25” board
Large learning event cards: these are the large cards that contain more information than those to be placed on the scoreboard
The logarithmic scale radar
The logarithmic-scale radar is a “synthetic” tool useful for visualizing the main features of a course through the predominant learning events. Through the radar it is possible to reason at the macro level about how a course could be designed or modified to maximize the achievement of the Intended Learning Outcomes.”
Instructions - design your course with the SLD25 method
The Smart Learning Design method is accompanied by a set of detailed instructions: you will find them within the MOOC pathway, but you can also download them here in .pdf format.
