challenges

a. courses are designed as 'sets' of modules (i.e. they have been modularised)

b. modules (in line with HE convention and practice) are aligned with learning outcomes, and a form of assessment

c. the contextualisation of modules involves intent that is often implicit / tacit / invisible - and constructing them to be shared requires this intent to be re-examined by a) the originator b) future user(s)

What is a pedagogical framework?The point is not to construct one ideal pedagogical framework; but neither are all possible frameworks equally satisfactory (p. 25)

tacit understandings

d. the re-use of modules that require strong context might afford (cultural) reproduction rather than a (re)design for learning

Dimensions of transformation:

• translation
• ownership
• re-use
• recontextualisation

customisable

accessible

e. stripping away contextual info in modules in order that they might be re-used is problematic in that insufficient structure may remain for others to use
