EDUC 298: Online Communities
(Instructor: Roy Pea)
EDUC 298 attempts to apply theories of learning to online communities – from the Math Forum to Flickr to Second Life - and asks how learning is cultivated among their participants. Assignments include keeping a journal of your experiences with existing communities of your choice, leading the class in an activity, and contributing to the course wiki. The final project will center on an analysis of the learning goals of an online community of your choice (or design!).

(Instructor: Shelley Goldman)
EDUC 124 offers a unique opportunity for students to work directly in a learning environment with a partner educator and students/participants. The course leads students through an observation based research process that guides them – from project definition through to field test - in designing complementary curriculum and technology tools to support specific learning goals.

“The Stanford LDT program was absolutely terrific. The coursework provided an excellent research-based foundation for understanding learning, with a balance of academic discussion and practical, hands-on projects. I also appreciated the diversity of thought and experience represented in the faculty and friends that I met. I especially enjoyed the fact that the program plan was flexible, allowing me to examine specific areas of interest in more detail.”
