Paper Abstract:
|
This paper describes the design and planning of a learning experience carried out as part of an ongoing project called DiDà. The DiDà project departs from a constructionist theoretical framework and seeks to sustain effective learning through the application of an interaction design methodology in the planning of learning activities. The design process used to develop these activities is part of a prototype called QB (Question Based), a model designed in the project for managing formal as well as informal learning activities. The QB model outlines the method by which course content can be structured as a result of the different stakeholders formative needs, which emerge within their authentic work contexts and activities. The learning experience described here is an eight hour course in Customer Care in Libraries for librarians, offered using a Peer-to-Peer learning strategy. In this paper the discussion focuses primarily on the design of the learning process and the theoretical/contextual foundations of the proposed format, with the goal of contributing to an increased motivation toward learning and knowledge sharing in public administration contexts. |
