eToolbox: Mapping Technology to Learning Getting Started
Purpose of this resource1. Firstly consider what types of learning
activities you would like your students to engage in
2. Then select the appropriate technology that serves these types of learning.
Some principles of good learning design1. Think about the needs of your students
and the particular learning context.2. Consider the key learning tasks and write
the learning objectives based on these. 3. Align the learning outcomes, teaching-
learning activities and assessment.4. Emphasise active learning, in particular
students’ peer learning, self-monitoring and autonomous learning.

Laurillard’s Conversational Framework
Laurillard, D. (2002a), Laurillard, D. (2002b).
Good designs use several types of teaching-learning activities
Learning Through
Acquisition
Inquiry
Practice
Production
Discussion
Collaboration
Learning through acquisition
Conventional approach Technology approach
Reading books, readings; Listening to teachers presentations face-to-face, lectures; Watching demonstrations.
Reading multimedia, websites, digital documents & resources;Listening to podcasts, webcasts; Watching animations, videos.
Types of Learning and the Different Types of Conventional and Digital Learning Technologies that Serve Them (adapted from Laurillard, 2012)
Learning through inquiry
Conventional approach Technology approach
Analysing ideas & info in a range of materials & resources; Using conventional methods to collect & analyse data; Comparing texts, searching & evaluating info. & ideas.
Analysing ideas & information in a range of digital resources; Using digital tools to collect & analyse data; Comparing digital text, using digital tools for searching & evaluating info. & ideas

Learning through practice
Conventional approach Technology approach
Practice exercises; doing practice-based projects, labs, field trips, face-to-face role-play activities.
Using models, simulations, microworlds, virtual labs & field trips, online role-play activities

Learning through production
Conventional approach Technology approach
Producing articulations using statements, essays, reports, accounts, designs, performances, artifacts, animations, models, videos.
Producing & storing digital documents, representations of designs, performances, artifacts, animations, models, resources, slideshows, photos, videos, blogs, e-portfolios.

Learning through discussion
Conventional approach Technology approach
Tutorials, seminars, email discussion, discussion groups, online discussion forums, class discussions, blog comments.
Online tutorials, seminars, email discussions, discussion groups, discussion forums, web-conferencing tools, synchronous and asynchronous.

Learning through collaboration
Conventional approach Technology approach
Small group project, discussing others’ outputs, building joint output.
Small group project, using online forums, wikis, chat rooms, etc. for discussing others’ outputs, building a joint digital output.

Important considerations when choosing technology Pedagogy before technology How will the technology add value to the
students’ learning? Start with something simple and build-up
gradually Consider the technical support needs of your
students and teach your students how to use the technology that you are introducing
