Interactions for learning
• Organize en orchestrate learning• Present, demonstrate, model …• Stimulate, encourage learning• Maintain interest/motivation• Exchange & co-construct
knowledge• Monitor progress• Assess• Provide guidance & support• Give feedback
(based on Moore, 1989)
Exemplary design: online & task-based
Organizing and orchestrating learning by
modelling task performance in a sequence of learning tasks
in a distance learning course:
– Task centered approach
– A authentic task in practice
– A complex learning task
– Limited teacher bandwidth
Educational Science
Designing complex learning
Exemplary design: online & task-based
• A realistic whole task modelledby instructors in detail withworked out examples of taskperformance
• Two realistic whole tasks forgroupwork /self-study withworked out examples of taskperformance
• A whole task to be performedindividually with templates and individual feedback*
A sequence of learning tasks

Task 3: An individual project
• Theory & instruction in the course
• Models & examples from tasks 1 & 2
• Criteria task performance
• Templates for products of task performance
• Go /no go on proposals for independent task execution*
• 3 online Q & A sessions with the instructors *
• Individual feedback on concept reports*
