Objective
• Students become familiar with the key concepts, competing theories and approaches of designing Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL)
• In collaboration with international students they will develop practical skills of setting up, implementing and evaluating the use of distributed set of integrated TEL systems and tools, and they will design a prototype of an advanced TEL course

Course assignments and assessment
• Grading 0-5– Based on
• Pedagogical decisions and script for your course• Technological decisions and script for your course,
course environment • Overall activity and participation in face-to-face
sessions and team’s collaboration– The more detailed evaluation criteria for scripts and
course environment will be presented when starting with these assignments
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Google Drive / Google Docs
as a writing tool• All the teams create Google documents for
their teamwork– Gathering ideas– Writing the pedagogical and technological scripts
• The documents will be shared with the team, the teacher (Venla) and later with peer and/or teacher evaluators
• For collaboration you can use also other tools and meet face-to-face as much as you want to
• You can find lots of tutorials for Google Drive from YouTube

The process of Designing TEL
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Design process
1. Defining the general framework of the course
2. Writing a pedagogical script for the course
3. Writing a technological script for the course
4. Technical implementation of the course (and testing)
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Defining the general framework of the course
• Defining the target group (who is this course designed for?)
• What are the main aims and contents of this course?
• Why do we use technology in this course? Why should this be for example a webcourse? (from student’s perspective and from teacher’s perspective)
• Scheduling and work division• Scope and workload of the course• How will it be practically implemented? Are all
the activities on-line? Collaborative and/or independent studying? International/national setting?
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Pedagogical script
• Defining the pedagogical decisions of the course– Learning theory– Description of the pedagogical model– Description of teacher’s role– Learning materials– Evaluation/assessment
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Technological script
• A concrete plan and guideline how to construct the course environment (and or use other technical tools in the course)– Description of the basic idea of the technological
implementation– Visual design and structure of the web environment– Possibilities and tools for communication and other
actions– Web materials / digital learning materials– Testing the environment and tools
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
Technical implementation and testing
• Texts and instructions• Pictures and videos• User accounts• Plan for technical support if needed• Structuring the web environment• Checking and finalizing• Testing: pedagogical testing, content testing
and technical testing

Forming the teams
Choose your team of 3-5 students!
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
The first decisions you should make…
• What is the topic of your course? What is the course about?
• What is the target group of your course?• What do you want the participants to learn?
What are the main learning goals of your course?
• What are the first ideas about the technical implementation of your course?
Venla VallivaaraLET – Learning and Educational Technology Research UnitUniversity of Oulu2013-01-31
For the next time:1. Create a Google document (using Google Drive/Docs) and share it
with all of your team members (create google/gmail accounts if you don’t have them already) and with Venla ([email protected])
2. If you haven’t used Google Drive/Docs before, you can watch tutorials from YouTube
3. Start gathering ideas, plans and questions to that document:– What decisions you have made already? What still needs to be decided?– Any new ideas about the topic, target group, implementation,
technologies?– Any interesting links, videos, articles you have found?– Any questions or problems?
4. Read at least two of the following articles:– Dillenbourg, P. (1999). What do you mean by ‘collaborative learning’?
