Introduction University of Wolverhampton School of Technology
Review the critical thinking and curriculum design rationale of a suite of bite-size 5 credit units
Potentially responding to the needs of a constantly changing learning
environment whilst recognising stakeholders influences;
Will share the conceptual thinking to capture the learning outcomes of a 20 credit shell module.

Conceived back in 2008/2009 – Project managed by Intelligent Career Development unit (i-CD) and disseminated within University in 2009/2010.
Coincided with JISC funding initiative (secured by Alison Felce -ILE)
Pebblepad would act as the Virtual repository for delivering the pilot.

Early thoughts:– 10 hours of lesson material based on module– 20 hours of guided reading (on-line library) and video clips– 10 hours of individual work related exercises with support via interactive media– 10 hours of blog-based group activity

Designing planning and formulation of curriculum aims and objectives and alignment of prescribed objectives through “constructive alignment” Biggs, 2003;
Capture - clarity and mastery of subject “mastery of a threshold concept that is likely to involve cognitive and identity shifts in the learner” Cousins, 2009;
Constructive alignment between On-line lecturer/Tutor and learner (possibly returning to HE and the facility to capture new IT skills);
Ever mindful of language – Terminology – Challenges
Pedagogical principals

Planning
• The collective design and contextualisation of a learning programme is paramount to successful course design and attainment of constructive alignment. Biggs (2003).
• Cowan (1998) captures the issue when he defines teaching as ‘the purposeful creation of situations from which motivated learners should not be allowed to escape without learning.
• However before we can move towards this creative environment we must first create well planned curricula.

Stakeholders views? The next step towards reaching a balanced curriculum
design would require a visit to employers, and external stakeholder;
This would of course raise the question of how much involvement employers should contribute towards curriculum design, (refer to hand-out Fig 1);
Learners and employers may have expectations towards ‘predicting, diagnosing, explaining and solving non-text book problems – surety of concept;

Taba - Model
• Taba (1962) describes through his model seven logical key steps, but appears to be missing reflection, or the opportunity to use reflection at various stages throughout design.
•
• Step 1. Diagnosis of needs
• Step 2. Formulation of objectives
• Step 3. Selection of content
• Step 4. Organisation of content
• Step 5. Selection of learning experiences
• Step 6. Organisation of learning experiences
• Step 7. Determination of what to evaluate and ways and means of doing it

5. Evaluation

EVALAUTION
• Pebblepad access to a 24/7 learning environment.• Supported experience - throughout the process from
registration through to completion.• Opportunity to engage with fellow learners through
Group blog activities, individual blog- pastoral care, dedicated and specialist on-line tutor.
• Engagement with interactive media• 10 weeks duration - 50 hours of learning, but this can be
varied to suit the organisation and individual learner availability but equates to the equivalent of 5 higher educational credits.
• Opportunity to progress

Reflections• Curriculum design appears correct – balance of self directed learning and
prescriptive activities
• Requires early capture! – Pastoral care – Internal mechanisms
• More guidance on Pebblepad use
• More video footage – podcasts –youtube links?
• A minority shy away from the group blogging activities
• Time constraints – work v life balance about right
• Constant care & feedback
