This unit investigates the technical and interactive design elements of learning design, within the context of the systems and technologies, some proprietary, some open source, by which learning experiences are delivered. Participants will integrate learning and teaching theories, frameworks, and methodologies that are deployed within a DLP such as gamification, communication and automated responses (e.g. Intelligent agents), academic integrity, and analytics to detect at-risk students.
Participants will gain hands-on experience with; managing content (storyboarding); using bespoke authoring tools to create and edit interactive content (H5P for example); setting up and managing communication; providing solutions using DLP to assess students; space personalisation and enhancing the user experience; for both synchronous and asynchronous delivery. The industry practice of design thinking will underpin our explorations.
On completion of this unit, participants will be equipped with the skills and capabilities for their work-ready portfolio.
