The Unit Sequence Template serves four primary purposes:
‐ To make learning design easily visible to persons other than the unit designer, via a physical aligning of the unit elements. ‐ To aid teaching teams in undertaking collaborative unit design and review. ‐ To facilitate and strengthen ongoing curriculum renewal and assurance of learning activities. ‐ To enable academics to conceptualise their learning design in the design of blended units.
Unit Concept and Intended Learning Outcomes Conceptualising and alignment
- f Unit
Elements Development of Learning Design Defining the Blend Populate Unit Outline Build Learning Environment Teach and Assess Review
Situating the UST in Curriculum Design
- Threshold Learning Outcomes, Course Learning Outcomes and mapping of
qualifications
LTAS Agenda so far
- collective revision of unit level curriculum by teaching teams
Next Frontier
- individual, autonomous approach
Current Context
- retrospective by nature, can inform re‐design but are not design tools
Available Tools
- Learning design is often not visible
Gap
- current focus is on providing academics with pedagogical guidance
Learning Design
- low tech, immediate means for academics to simultaneously design and review
unit level curriculum
What is required
- enables academics to articulate their learning design based on principles of
constructive alignment
Unit sequence template
- the immediacy of the tools enable negotiated collaborative curriculum renewal
Objective
Reviewing assessment at the unit design
A series of questions to review a learning design documented in the unit sequence template
Are all the unit learning outcomes being assessed? Is there a combination of formative (learning activities with feedback) and summative assessment tasks? Are the methods of assessment appropriate in respect to the intended learning outcomes? Are there any professional accreditation requirements which specify required assessment methods? Are there at least two different methods of assessment being used? Is the difficulty of the assessment tasks comparable to other units in the course at the same year level?
Does the weighting of each assessment task reflect the importance of the learning outcomes being assessed?
Are there two opportunities for students to achieve each of the intended learning
- utcomes? Note: multiple intended learning outcomes can be assessed with a single assessment task
Will students receive feedback for assessment tasks and learning activities (formative assessment) so that it can be used to inform their performance in subsequent assessment tasks? Is there at least one summative assessment task that is submitted, marked and returned to students by the midpoint of the unit? Does this assessment schedule enable students (where practical) to have a spread of assessment due dates across the study period?
How do students receive feedback on their performance during or after undertaking learning activities? Note: Students may receive this feedback from peers, teacher (individually, group, whole of class) or
automated (e.g. quiz) or through self‐review.
Do the learning topics covered prior to each assessment task, enable students to undertake the respective assessment?
