In this video (3.40 min), Chris Tuffnell gives you five tips for learning design.

Click on Take this survey to write a brief summary of how you could implement one "chunk" of learning in your teaching in the coming weeks.

Please note that we will be going into more detail on what is meant by chunking later in the course in module 3.

Here are Chris' five tips for learning design:

Start with your learning outcomes (clear, measurable and achievable learning outcomes). Chris refers to Bloom's taxonomy and the verbs to show the different levels of learning.
Assessment - align your intended learning outcomes with the forms of assessment.
Chunk, in other words divide your learning session content into bite-sized pieces.
Sequence of the chunks and consider whether they will be delivered synchronously or asynchronously and whether you can use different instructional strategies in this flow of activities.
Make sure that you are creating learner-centred, learner-driven activities. By making one of your learning objects learner-driven, by providing opportunity and autonomy to research, to create, to present, you support students in achieving higher order thinking.

If we view our sessions as a series of learning objects, we can create more engaging learning experiences and more flexibility.
