Notice

This session will be conducted face-to-face at IAL. More details will be sent to the confirmed registrants.

What Is The Session About?

Throughout the day, you will immerse yourself in future-oriented design, allowing you to experience firsthand what you are learning. You will engage in sharing ideas and experiences, posing challenging questions, and working with your own design examples or structured learning experiences. Together, we will build knowledge and collaboratively design future-oriented learning using the Six Principles of Learning Design (6PoLD). The day will conclude with a critical examination of the challenges and possibilities for future-oriented learning design in Singapore, prompting you to reflect on your identity as an adult educator.

This active and dialogical approach makes it essential for you to complete the short pre-reading of "The Six Principles of Learning Design" by Bound, H., & Chia, A. (2020). This guide is available on the IAL website and will be provided to you upon successful registration for the course. You are expected to read this guide beforehand, as we will begin applying the six principles early in the day. Additionally, please bring examples of curriculum or learning outcomes from a course you have attended.

As we enact future-oriented learning design, we will periodically ‘go meta’—rising above, thinking big, and seeing how things interrelate—to build a supportive community of inquiry within the day. You will be challenged to rethink assumptions about learning, learners, knowledge, and facilitation, and to explore other aspects of future-oriented learning.

By the end of the day, we will have developed a comprehensive understanding of the relationship between 6PoLD and future-oriented learning design, achieving the following learning outcomes:
  1. Engaging with different perspectives on learning, learning design, facilitation, and knowledge.
  2. Critically applying the Six Principles of Learning Design to create future-oriented learning activities.
  3. Reflecting on the implications of designing future-oriented learning and its impact on your identity as an adult educator.

What Does The Session Cover?

By the end of the workshop, learners will be able to:

 
Engage with different ways of thinking about learning, learning design, facilitating & knowledge
 
Critically use the 6 PoLD to design future oriented learning activities
 
Reflect on what it means to design future oriented learning and how this impacts on your identity as an Adult Educator.
