Challenging the TEL research and development: imagining and designing educational innovation

Friday 16/05 9:00-10:30h
Workshop Space A
Session Description

Designing educational innovation is a methodological challenge in TEL. Not only do we entertain certain scenarios embedded in specific socio-technical imaginaries and implement our ideas through the design of certain technological artifacts, but we also create educational innovation based on them. These imaginaries can be based on previous research, certain policies, or societal anticipations. The same imaginaries fed into developing and evaluating theoretical insights for PhD projects, very often connected to the simultaneous development of learning technologies. On the other hand, successfully implementing TEL innovations in education can be cumbersome.
With this workshop, first, we invite researchers to reflect and understand the implications of the abovementioned concepts. Afterward, we reflect on how research (theory/pedagogy) and development (design/technology) processes can be balance going beyond the dichotomies of pedagogy and technology.
