IntroductionFormal learning spaces can become effective by supporting educators with orchestration.

Contemporary orchestration is flawedContemporary orchestration is extremely challenging and arguably ad hoc.

Streamlined orchestration—attainable through explicit organisation of enactment activities using an orchestration workbench—could potentially make educators more effective.

Organised orchestration desirableStudy involving 61 participants measured effectiveness and user experience.
● Orchestration faster using organised approach.
● Organised approach perceived more successful.

Feasibility of organised orchestrationPrototype usage
● Tool usage statistics indicated prototype frequently used.
● Classroom observations and screencasts suggest seamless switching between tools.
Learner experience● Learner survey with
71 students conducted at the end.
● Results suggest approach could potentially positively impact learning experience.
