Learning Café DES10
The ABC of Rapid and Engaging Learning Design
Date Thursday, Dec 7 Time – RoomSchöneberg
Most leading universities and colleges have aspirational strategies to develop future-looking, digitally rich, flexible courses attuned to students’ expectations for engaging, professionally related learning experiences. Yet we know only a few of our pioneering academics currently have the design skills, technology knowledge and above all time to remodel their programmes to the creative standards the future of education demands. ‘ABC’ is a high-energy, hands-on workshop; in just 90 minutes teaching teams work together to create a visual ‘storyboard’. The storyboard is made up of pre-printed cards representing the type and sequence of learning activities (both online and offline) required to meet the module or programme learning outcomes. Today, you will be able to join and experience ABC yourself.
