Orchestrating Learning Activities Using the CADMOS Learning Design Tool
Katsamani, Maria; Retalis, Symeon
Research in Learning Technology, v21 suppl1 2013
This paper gives an overview of CADMOS (CoursewAre Development Methodology for Open instructional Systems), a graphical IMS-LD Level A & B compliant learning design (LD) tool, which promotes the concept of "separation of concerns" during the design process, via the creation of two models: the conceptual model, which describes the learning activities and the corresponding learning resources, and the flow model, which describes the orchestration of these activities. According to the feedback from an evaluation case study with 36 participants, reported in this paper, CADMOS is a user-friendly tool that allows educational practitioners to design flows of learning activities using a layered approach. (Contains 3 tables and 2 figures.)
