Learning pathway<\/b>\n<\/p>\n

\"Spier's<\/a><\/div>\n

For the purposes of this course, a ‘learning pathway’ is the concept we use to refer to a sequence of individual sub-pages published online to teach a particular concept. It is similar to the idea of a lesson to teach a particular concept, and includes the subject matter, learning activities, and assessment activities the learners must complete. The individual sub-pages of a learning pathway correspond to the sub-components of a lesson.<\/p>\n

Learning pathways are the building blocks for assembling full courses, or micro-courses. One learning pathway usually covers a clear concept which can stand on its own as a learning sequence, and is typically completed in 1 \u2013 2 hours of learning effort online. A topic area within a curriculum would normally be covered by a number of “learning pathways”.\n<\/p>\n

The metaphor of a pathway is used to suggest flexibility for learners to choose how they complete their learning journey.\n<\/p>\n

The purpose of this course is to acquire and demonstrate your skills in designing, developing, and publishing an online learning pathway using a wiki to WordPress digital publishing ecosystem. In short, you will build a partial course website containing a learning pathway of your choice that can support collaborative editing (if needed).\n<\/p>\n

We recommend that you think about a potential content area you would like to focus on for this course. You will need to specify this in your learning contract<\/a>, with the understanding that individual authors can change their topic area at a later date. However, choosing a topic area in advance provides an opportunity for participants who want to work in teams to self-organise in assigning individual learning pathways to team members working on the same topic area.\n<\/p>\n

Consider the following requirements before choosing a content area for your project:\n<\/p>\n
