Re: Digital support for teaching as a design science

Loewenbl, April 20, 2012

Some aspects of teaching make it a design profession but there are some difficulties with applying all of the elements of design terminology to the profession. As someone who has not delved fully into the definitions I would initially ask: What are the artifacts created that can be evaluated? The digital lessons is one answer, but how are they evaluated? Is it because they make meaning to the students? Is it because students can interpet better?
Or is it the job of a teacher to show students how to design?
Part of the profession is social worker and manager.
The preparation for making meaning so that students can make meaning can be construed as design.
Just some thoughts. [Comment] [Permalink] [Previous][Next]
