Conversations About Learning Design

Some discussions have popped up recently on the Sakai Pedagogy discussion group that led to some interesting questions about the potential role of learning design (small “l”, small “d”) in higher education. Since the Sakai conversations tend to be technologist-heavy and teacher-light, I cross-posted a few of the foundational questions to the LAMS community:

What are the use cases for workflow in a high ed learning environment?
When is workflow *not* appropriate?
Is a flowchart the right metaphor?

If you have direct experience teaching or learning with LAMS or a similar tool, please join the conversation and add your perspective. If you don’t have experience with any of these tools, please come along anyway. It should be a fun conversation.
