AJET 21(1) Goodyear (2005) - educational design and networked learning: Patterns. Peter GoodyearUniversity of Sydney There is a growing demand for advice about effective, time efficient ways of using ICT to support student learning in higher education. This paper uses one such area of activity - networked learning - as a context in which to outline a novel approach to educational design. The paper makes two main contributions. It provides a high level view of the educational design problem space. It then introduces the patterns based approach to educational design. Introduction This paper outlines a novel approach to thinking about problems of educational design. Why should we treat educational design as a problem worth attention; one meriting analysis and new conceptual resources?
It is with this sense of current context that I offer the design approach presented here. Networked learning The terms e-learning, web based learning and online learning now have wide currency in education. Conceptualising educational design Figure 1 falls into three parts.

I’ve developed an activity module for Moodle but have never created an entire course site. Have thought about how it might be done, but never done it. The following is a description and some reflections on the experience. I’m particular interested in: Is the “pragmatic” approach to design a Moodle course site as widespread as I think? Or are their great swathes of teachers creating Moodle course sites from scratch? What are the experiences of folk who have used the social format for a course? Reflection After doing all of the following, it’s not a great surprise that my opinions, biases and prejudices have been confirmed. It’s also reinforced that Moodle 1.9.x still retains some fairly significant limitations in trying to do something fairly flexible. The purpose of the course site All I essentially want to do is to copy the last time I ran ..the course..
