Design and Use of Technologies for Education (DUTE) (CCME0037)

This module provides a critical introduction to key theories and methodologies relevant to the design and use of technologies in face-to-face, online and blended settings. The module aims to help students develop a critical awareness of the potential and realities of technology-enhanced learning (TEL) - emphasising the design, development and evaluation of the whole learning environment. This includes a focus on the educator as both the designer, the source of knowledge needed for design, and as a user of technology with a focus on the learner and learning. Case studies from research and industry of innovative teaching and learning initiatives with technology are used to provide a basis for critical examination of the current trends and future directions of educational technologies. The module is thought using context-based, project-based, and inquiry-based pedagogy, therefore is very learner-centred and encourages students to take the initiative of their own learning. Weekly group work assignments are embedded into the module and assessment consists of a 5000-word individual essay. Due to the emphasis on context-based group learning activities of the module, we encourage students to join weekly face-to-face lectures as well as completing provided group activities and tasks online
