WHAT IS LEARNING
EXPERIENCE DESIGN?

5.
TRANSCENDING MATERIAL
“Experience is not about good industrial
design, multi-touch, or fancy interfaces. It is
about transcending the material. It is about
creating an experience through a device.”
MARC HASSENZAHL

6.
Digital platforms + Digital products + Digital services
+ F2F events & interactions+ Digital support

7.
EXPERIENCE DESIGN
It is crucial to view experience as the consequence
of many different systems.
Experience emerges from the intertwined works of
perception, action, motivation, emotion and
cognition in dialogue with the world (place, time,
people and objects).
Experience Design: Technology for all the right reasons

LX PYRAMID
The Learner Experience
Pyramid describes different
levels at which learning
resources, services, solutions
and systems can be
experienced by learners &
staff.
Based on CX Pyramid by
Aberdeen Research after
Mark Scibelli and Stephen
Anderson.
FOCUS ON EXPERIENCES

Has personal significance
Memorable experience worth
sharing

expected
Used without difficulty

USER EXPERIENCE DESIGN
…to achieve high-quality user experience in a
company's offerings there must be a seamless merging
of the services of multiple disciplines.
The first requirement for an exemplary user experience
is to meet the exact needs of the customer, without fuss
or bother.
Don Norman, & Jakob Nielsen

10.
The world is complex, and so too must be the activities
that we perform. But that doesn’t mean that we must
live in continual frustration. No. The whole point of
human-centered design is to tame complexity, to turn
what would appear to be a complicated tool into one
that fits the task, that is understandable, usable,
enjoyable.
Don Norman,
The Design of Everyday Things
HUMAN-CENTRED DESIGN

11.
SERVICE DESIGN THINKING
Service design is the intentional and
thoughtful design of internal and
customer-facing activities needed to
deliver a service. Where experience design
concerns itself only with the customer-
facing aspects, service design looks also at
the experience of staff.
This Is Service Design Thinking

METHODOLOGY

13.
EMPATHY FOR THE USER

14.
EMPATHY FOR THE USER
“Empathy is a noun. A thing. It is an
understanding you develop about another
person. Empathizing is the use of that
understanding – an action.”
INDI YOUNG

DO WE NEED LEARNER
EXPERIENCE DESIGN?

16.
A DESIGN SCIENCE FOR EDUCATION
“Educational technologists needs to
develop a set of principled working
practices....that contribute to a design
science for education.”
EILEEN SCANLON

17.
TEACHING AS A DESIGN SCIENCE
Because technology is changing both what
and how students learn we can only lead
educational innovation by being clear about
the principles of designing good teaching
and learning and therefore what education
needs from technology.

OUR PROJECT & YOUR
BRIEF

23.
YOUR TURN: PROJECT BRIEF
You have been asked to design a 3 month
program that will support an initial staff cohort
of 300 in learning about and adopting OER
practices.
As this is a pilot, the university will allow much
leeway in the use of third-party apps and even
a modest budget for development work.
At an initial meeting you overheard a lecturer
mention that they simply haven’t got the time
to invest in innovative teaching or
‘experimentation’.

CODING CONVERSATIONS

31.
USER INTERVIEW

32.
YOUR TURN: USER INTERVIEWS
• For our “OER Project” conduct a user
interview with a staff
15 mins as a group
1. Prepare 4-5 user questions
2. Create interview guide

33.
YOUR TURN: USER INTERVIEWS
See your handout.
Tips
• Be welcoming and put your user at ease
• Ask them to think out loud
• Explain why you are doing the interview
• Be an active listener
• Ask open questions
• Give encouragement: “How did you feel about it?
What did you think?”
• Silence is your best friend

34.
EMPATHY MAPPING

35.
YOUR TURN: EMPATHY MAPPING
Think about your conversations &
experiences in introducing OER
• Focus on staff
• See, hear, think, do
• Capture on post-its, 1 idea/observation
per post-it
• 7 mins by yourself

36.
YOUR TURN: EMPATHY MAP
• Review empathy template in your toolkit
• Go to the empty map that has been set
up for you as a group
• As a group, group your post-its on the
quadrants in the map

37.

YOUR TURN: PERSONA DATA
SOURCES
5 mins
Let’s make a list as a group.
Where would you find information to verify
or augment your persona?

41.
YOUR TURN: CREATE A PERSONA
• Take 15 minutes with your group to
design 2 persona
• Use the handouts in your toolkit
• Consider: One ‘mature’ staff member, one
‘rookie’
• Think about different attributes

42.
YOUR TURN: AFFINITY DIAGRAMMING
Take 10-15 mins to do desktop research on
OER adoption etc.
From your desktop research and own
experience, write down ideas/problems/
issues on post-its
One idea per post-it
5-7 words per post. Write big

43.
YOUR TURN: GROUP YOUR FINDINGS
As a group, get everything on the wall and
begin to group
Articulate, ask questions, communicate with
each other
One person to take lead in grouping and
naming groups. Begin to shape order.

LEARNER JOURNEY MAPPING –
GETTING STARTED

63.
WHEN DO YOU USE JOURNEY MAPPING?
• For an existing product, object or service
• To get an overview of all the elements
and stakeholders
• To map all the touch points
• To identify emotions associated with
interactions
• To identify pain points

64.
WHEN DO YOU USE JOURNEY MAPPING?
For a new product, object or service to be
designed, developed and implemented:
• To get a common understanding of aspiring
experience for all members of design &
development team
• To identify touch points
• To identify channels
• To identify priorities for the development

65.
WHEN DO YOU USE JOURNEY MAPPING?
Instead of a prototype
• When a prototype is too expensive to
build
• Have something to shoot at

66.
WHY DO YOU USE JOURNEY MAPPING?
• To map all the bricks in your bricolage
(even those beyond your control)
• To step away from your medium
• To design across the gaps
• To facilitate conversation
• To facilitate collaboration
