Designing for Learning in the Nordic Countries (DLiNC)

The map below shows the 26 Learning Design practices (marked with blue markers for each designing university) across 8 different Nordic and Baltic countries (marked with green markers) that the DLiNC project has identified as of August 2024. Click on the blue markers to read more about the respective universities' Learning Design practices, the tools involved, and links to further information.

Note: By clicking on the individual Learning Design practices, you can see they are categorised as either open, semi-open, or facilitated. Open practices are characterised by the fact that educators are (mainly) responsible for deciding how the provided design aids, such as tools, pedagogical/didactical models, examples, archives, etc., should be utilised in the development and implementation of a learning design. Semi-open practices are characterised by educators being involved in facilitated design activities (e.g., a workshop, a meeting, supervision) that use design aids; however, it is up to the educators to complete and implement their design in their teaching practice. Facilitated practices are characterised by a more orchestrated process, facilitated by an educational developer or peer, where relevant design aids are included, and the developer ensures that designs are devised and implemented in practice.
