Session: Context and Collaborative Learning Design
Session at the ETUG Fall 2009 Workshop
This session will describe the collaborative team approach and provide some examples of collaborative learning design models used at British Columbia Institute of Technology. BCIT is characterized by a considerable range of programs and students, which requires careful consideration of the teaching and learning context and the various stakeholders – professional governing bodies, industry, subject matter experts, and program requirements – in the development of learning and teaching materials. As a result, the e-learning continuum is quite varied at BCIT and presents both challenge and opportunities.
