Storyboarding the student learning experience Kate Lindsay. Nov 2018.
• Method adapted from UCL’s ABC Learning Design. • A light touch, card-based, team-based approach which co-creates a visual storyboard for a module in just 90 minutes. • Built on curriculum design research from the JISC* (Viewpoints) and Diana Laurillard’s learning types (UCL Io. E). • Used In universities across the UK and Europe for blended and fully online course design. • Can be localised to different institutions. • Links strategy to pedagogy to technology to support change. * Viewpoints project (2008 -2013), **Laurillard, D.

UCEM Learning Types
UCEM Module Structure
Storyboarding Method 1. Design conversation: The learning designers on the table will fill out the sheet provided as you tell them about your module. This sheet will provide the focus for storyboarding. 10 minutes 2. Storyboarding: Sequence and stack the 5 cards, exploring the different ways learning types can be mixed together to meet the learning outcomes. Begin by thinking about the learning focus and how this maps to the assessment, then start defining tasks and activities. 1 hr 20 minutes 3. Feedback: We’ll present our storyboards to the room and receive feedback and ideas from colleagues. 30 minutes. 4. Reflect & revise: Over the coming weeks we will develop the activities, narrative and content to implement you module. Post Design Jam

“We really benefitted from the space and time to work on our modules with the rest of the team. “ “This visual way of designing, hands on with the cards and storyboards, was simple and effective. “ “It’s made us really think about the module design and to take on what the students have told us in previous years in their feedback, and then to try implement some of that feedback” “It made me more conscious of the different types of learning and how they can be stacked to achieve outcomes. The notion of ‘active acquisition’ is a game changer. “ “ I never had anything like this in the previous universities I worked. It’s an excellent way to come together as an education team – different experts, different views, it’s a really energising way to design/. “ “Enjoyable. Valuable. Productive! A great event. ”
