As well as learning materials for students, the learning design process should produce records for teachers and designers to learn from, now and in the future.
Learning design is a complex, multi-party process that takes place in many different contexts, synchronously and asynchronously, over a long period.
It may be impossible to document the process fully, but it’s important that some records are made and kept, not just for project management now, but for the benefit of others in the future.
Managers and developers need to consider this when scoping and planning projects.
Good documentation and initial scoping may help to set and retain a guiding vision, and so prevent development projects losing touch with their original aims or intents.
Question
Q: How can the same technologies be used to help us keep records?
A: Audio/video recordings of face-to-face meetings, Elluminate recordings/transcriptions, personal reflective blogs, team wikis…
