Inspired by Eleanor Hannan's SOTL game at Playful Learning Conference, I wondered about making a learning theories game. Her game asked people to consider different Epistimologies, Research instruments, etc., to combine into a research design. I wondered if I could do something quite different, but based around learning theories, concepts, and interventions. So taking something like the HoTEL learning theory wheel as a starter, we could pick a "Learning paradigm" (supported by a key theorist), then a "key concept", perhaps a teaching approach that would fit underneath that, then a particular type of teaching intervention or interaction. So we end up picking teaching interventions that fit within a sensible framework at the end, rather than just because we fancy doing them.
It could even just be a set of cards that link these together, rather than a game too... I'll have to think about this one soon.
Andy, did you see the cards that Chris and I made for the Creative Approaches to Copyright Education session? They have learning theories and different teaching methods on them. It's a set of cards. I can share them with you.
