In Theories and Frameworks, you’ll take a close look at learners and learning contexts. As you define your target audience, you’ll learn how to use learner personas as a communication tool with stakeholders and how these can be used to influence learning goals, assessments, and activities.
Explore theories of learning and motivation that inform design. You’ll be introduced to learning taxonomies for defining learning outcomes, such as Bloom’s taxonomy and Fink’s Taxonomy of Significant Learning. You’ll take a closer look at design frameworks, such as Backward Design, Integrated Course Design, and the ADDIE model. Next, you’ll see examples of conceptual tools that can be used to support ideation, brainstorming, and course outlining. This course will include an immersive activity in which you’ll join learning experience design colleagues to develop, refine, and present project plans to stakeholders. By taking this course, you’ll gain experience mapping out a course design from start to finish and be well equipped to continue on in the series. For teachers in the state of Michigan: This series, "An Introduction to Learning Experience Design (LXD)," is approved in the state of Michigan for a maximum of 44.5 State Continuing Education Clock Hours (SCECHs) for teachers. The successful completion of all 3 courses in the series will be required to claim SCECHs.

A brilliant course for people considering pivoting into the domain of LxD. It puts you in the goldilocks zone of learning, challenging you JUST enough to be learning more, yet keeping you engaged by combining relatively up to date theoretical and industrial knowledge and skills. The Extended Reality and Immersion component of the program stood out for me and was critical to understanding what competencies can look like in the industry. Would strongly recommend the course to committed learners.
Excellent Course! Stop deliberating, just sign up and take it! It has chipped away at so much of my imposter syndrome. I feel so knowledgeable and prepared to apply the concepts. I can't believe how excited I am to take the next class! I may have reached peak nerd-ception. I'm learning about learning in a learning context with other learners...
Learning Experience Design: Theories and Frameworks is a thoughtfully designed course that effectively bridges foundational theories with practical design strategies. Its clear structure, relevant examples, and engaging activities make it a five-star learning experience for both new and experienced educators.
The second course was really good and interesting. I feel like I really learned more about the frameworks.
