A new metaphor for e-Learning: learning maps

Challenge to Learn

Yesterday I visited the Fraunhofer institute in Karlsruhe, Germany. They have been investigating a learning map metaphor for the past few years. Interesting visit. So what did I learn from it? The Fraunhofer institute is an impressive organization 18.000 employees working in applied science. So they approached this research in a scientific way. They use web didactics as a didactical framework and build a very complete solution around that.

Webinar: Didactics, Management theory, Agile and new learning metaphors equals Outcome learning

Challenge to Learn

Last year I wrote a series of post on outcome learning. I have continued to work on this and now I have a new version. In the earlier version I combined didactic principles with a management theory. I order to make it more complete I now added principles from Agile (Scrum) software development and my ideas about a new learning metaphor. I presented on this subject at the DevLearn conference in Las Vegas last November.
