Matt Bower, John G. Hedberg & Andreas Kuswara (2010): A framework for Web 2.0 learning design, Educational Media International, 47:3, 177-198 This paper describes an approach to conceptualising and performing Web 2.0-enabled learning design. Based on the Technological, Pedagogical and Content Knowledge model of educational practice, the approach conceptualises Web 2.0 learning design by relating Anderson and Krathwohl's Taxonomy of Learning, Teaching and Assessing, and different types of constructive and negotiated pedagogies to a range of contemporary Web 2.0-based learning technologies. The learning design process can then be based upon the extent to which different Web 2.0 technologies support the content, pedagogical, modality and synchronicity requirements of the learning tasks.

Excellent exa,mple of game theory, or indeed problem based learning in a university course.

The aim of Digital Learning Technologies is to provide the students with knowledge and practical experience in the digital technologies in the educational and training environment. This course will: Investigate technological developments influencing education and training; Investigate Online Pedagogy and Tools; Examine Digital Literacy and Networking Technologies; Analyse Social and Ethical Issues.

(View webinar archive and support resources) - Next Generation Learning Challenges has identified six essential dimensions of next-generation learning: - learning goals focused on deeper, more comprehensive outcomes - measurement of progress through embedded and adaptive assessment - learning designs that are personalized, competency-based, and supportive - blended and open-source implementation and change management - conditions that enable "breakthrough models" to succeed - broad and rapid scaling to match the widespread need

Simple overview of particular technologies and 'how to'. Not too strong in the pedagogy, but easy instructions for using various tools. Possibly good to share with novice users.

The benefits of using Web 2.0 tools and technologies in the online classroom reaches far and wide. This section looks at both documented and undocumented advantages.
