H213, Treforest campus
Seminar arranged in conjunction with Dr Lynne Gornall, Evaluator, Merthyr Moodle project (CSO).
Presented by: Fred Garnett (Visiting Research Associate – London Knowledge Lab) and Nigel Ecclesfield (Head of FE Research – Becta)
The Learner-Generated Context Research Group hold that the Education that we have all experienced has been institution-centric and that shapes the learning offer that gets created. However in recent years there has been much debate about personalisation, Learner-Voice and even learner-centred approaches to learning. Whilst we express interest in these we believe that they remain institution-centric approaches. Any “learner-centric” approaches to learning require new conceptual models and new design patterns for education. We believe that this requires new tools for the co-creation of learning and this is what we, as a group, have been working on and we will discuss these in the seminar.
We have developed; the Ecology of Resources tool to enable participatory design, the Open Context Model of Learning to enable the transformation of pedagogies; the Organisational Architecture of Participation to transform institutions and the educational system as a whole.
Finally we will look forward to the requirement in the EU i2010 to integrate informal, non-formal and formal learning across Europe by 2105.
