Learning object rationale: ‘reuse’Assumptions• Teachers want to use
(other people’s) learning objects
Gap• Little evidence for “reuse”• Cultural and practical factors

Learning object rationale: ‘reuse’Assumptions• Teachers want to use
(other people’s) learning objects
• Teachers will be able to find learning objects they want
Gap• Little evidence for “reuse”• Cultural and practical factors
• No single metadata standard for search/retrieval
• Range of applications of metadata

Learning object rationale: ‘reuse’Assumptions• Teachers want to use
(other people’s) learning objects
• Teachers will know how to use learning objects
• Teachers will be able to find learning objects they want
• Teachers need support but as yet there are few support tools available
Gap• Little evidence for “reuse”• Cultural and practical factors
• No single metadata standard for search/retrieval
• Range of applications of metadata

Project aims
• Develop a framework to guide the reuse of learning objects to create pedagogically sound online learning environments
• Create and investigate tools to support teachers design processes and decision-making
• Investigate standards that can support the tools and process

Learning Designs Project
• A way to describe the design of a learning experience (the pedagogy) with ICTs
• Facilitate communication amongst educators = ‘pedagogical patterns’ or ‘design patterns’
• Serve as model or template to guide ‘good practice’

Representation
• Learning sequence as a representation of a learning design
• Designer identification of task, supports and resources
• Formalism as a visual representation of tasks/ supports and resources

Further investigations
• School teachers’ use of problem-based learning design (Webquest)
• University teachers’ use of problem-based learning design (Explore, Describe, Apply)
• Application profile for Australian higher education community
• Integration with learning management system (Janison Toolbox LMS)

Conclusion
• Does not eliminate the need for academics to have an understanding of contemporary learning theories and their applications
• But provides teachers with a scaffold to help them design high quality learning environments without investment of excessive amounts of time
• Focus on helping teachers apply their professional and disciplinary knowledge
