    A collaborative design model to support hybrid learning environments during COVID19
    Cochrane, T ; Birt, J ; Cowie, N ; Deneen, C ; Goldacre, P ; Narayan, V ; Ransom, L ; Sinfield, D ; Worthington, T (University of New England, Armidale, 2020-11-30)
    COVID-19 has catalyzed online learning environment design across all university disciplines, including the traditionally practice-based disciplines. As we move from a rapid response triage mode of online learning towards a more sustained engagement with a mix of online and face-to- face learning environments (particularly for practice-based learning) we face some unique challenges. This concise paper explores an example of collaborative co-creation and co-design of a resource guide as a response to the challenges of COVID-19 for best practices for designing hybrid learning environments to facilitate distributed learning environments (face-to-face and remote students). The co-creative co-design of the resource guide highlights some of the identified key design principles behind facilitating distributed learning communities.

    A mobile ecology of resources for Covid-19 learning
    Narayan, V ; Cochrane, T ; Cowie, N ; Hinze, M ; Birt, J ; Deneen, C ; Goldacre, P ; Ransom, L ; Sinfield, D ; Worthington, T (ASCILITE, 2020-11-30)
    Mobile devices and a vast array of accompanying applications offer significant affordances to create, consume, share, collaborate and communicate—affordances that could be easily leveraged to facilitate meaningful learning. A positive disruption arising from Covid-19 that aligns with the affordances of mobile learning is the uncoupling of time and space in the learning process. Traditionally formal learning is a process that is predominately viewed as an experience that is ‘timetabled’— scheduled to eventuate at a ‘place’—lecture or a tutorial (or similar) in a room or lecture theatre. In this concise paper, an ecology of resources is discussed along with guiding principles for designing and facilitating uncoupled authentic and student-determined learning post the emergency remote teaching phase.
