With the development of any course it is vital to begin with pedagogy itself. Pedagogy refers to the science of learning – or consideration about how we receive, process, retain and use new knowledge.
Structured Learning
You may have a clear type of course in mind, but how do you structure and deliver it? Effective courses are built upon a logical framework that observes how learners learn. This is called Pedagogy. Successful courses deliver meaningful content in a scaffolded manner.
Web Pedagogy can present a range of pedagogical models to help structure your curriculum to your needs and those of your diverse group of learners.
Interactivity
Web-based learning management systems provide an ever-growing range of activity types for assessment including quizzes, tasks, video/audio recordings, collaborative tasks and peer review. With the right suite of tools at your disposal, assessment can be an affirming and engaging while robust experience for your learners.
Individualised and Personalised Learning
It is true that “one size does not fit all”. It is possible to design courses that reach the same outcome via a range of alternative pathways. When developing courses it is important to consider the needs of a range of different learning styles and aptitudes through personalised learning approaches. Where courses meet the needs of individuals the opportunity for success and genuine engagement is greater.
