Description

Learning design is the art of intentionally crafting different kinds of learning. Nowhere is this more important than when it comes to online education. When we use digital technologies, in fact, each pedagogical activity requires forethought and an explicit representation of what learners and teachers need to do.

While some may consider this a burden, it can also be an opportunity to intentionally reconsider how both face-to-face and online learning activities can be structured.
