Meeting teachers co-desing needs by means of Integrated Learning Environments
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012,

Pre- and in-service teacher training has made a big effort in fostering the adoption of innovative pedagogical approaches, such as collaborative or project-based learning. Nevertheless, teachers still find significant difficulties when trying to apply innovations to ICT-based contexts, currently dominated by Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs). Although most institutions now have a VLE, these are mainly used as content repositories or for administrative purposes, and there is not a wide update of those innovative pedagogies. Research on learning design addresses this problem by providing teachers with ICT tools capable of collecting their pedagogically-informed decisions, making designs more explicit and shareable (and therefore transferable and adaptable), and setting up the enacting ICT environment accordingly. This research has now produced a rich set of learning design tools, whose evaluation shows that they do shift teacher practice towards innovative pedagogies. This proposal aims to build on this work and enable a wider spectrum of teachers and institutions to incorporate these resources into their practice. This project brings together partners from the higher-education, vocational training, and adult education levels, as well as institutions with expertise in learning design research. The project goal is threefold: 1) to provide an Integrated Learning Design Environment (ILDE) based on existing free and open source solutions, including authoring tools; co-design support for teacher communities; and deployment of learning designs on mainstream VLEs; 2) to run a series of workshops for teachers using ILDE to train teachers in learning design and the orchestration of ICT-based learning environments according to innovative pedagogies; 3) to disseminate the project’s outcomes in the form of workshops for learning design training, and to promote the creation and maintenance, beyond the project’s financial period, of a teacher community using learning design.
