The Orchestration Matrix: A Tool to Design Heterogeneous Classroom Ecosystems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Modern classrooms are complex socio-technical spaces where multiple heterogeneous legacy tools and novel technologies coexist. The design and the study of such technological ecosystems (or of single technologies that have to integrate into one such ecosystem) is still under-researched, and we lack established conceptual tools to understand how a learning scenario is orchestrated across such heterogeneous sets of resources, and the role and affordances of each technology in it. In this contribution, we present the orchestration matrix, a simple table-like form that can help technology designers and researchers to analyze an existing technological classroom ecosystem from the point of view of teacher orchestration of a learning scenario, or propose new ecosystems that are (hopefully) more effective.

Technology for classroom orchestration
We use different criteria to judge teaching methods and learning environments as researchers and teachers. As researchers, we tend to rely on learning gains measured in controlled conditions. As teacher, the skilled management of classroom constraints results in the impression that a specific design “works well”. We describe fourteen design factors related to the metaphors of classroom orchestr...
متن کاملCommon Knowledge: Supporting the Orchestration of Multi- Modal Note-Sharing in a Heterogeneous Classroom Ecology
We will present Common Knowledge (CK) – a pedagogical and technological innovation that supports teacher orchestration of inquiry discourse occurring in the digital and classroom environments. We designed CK to support a “knowledge community” pedagogy where students add their own ideas, build on peers’ contributions, and structure their inquiry. Using tablets, students contributed to a knowledg...
متن کاملSceDer and COML: Toolsets for Learning Design and Facilitation in One-to-One Technology Classroom
In a one-to-one collaborative learning classroom supported by ubiquitous computing and a distributed system runtime environment, teachers require tools that allow them to design learning scenarios, and to manage and monitor the activities happening in the classroom. We propose an architecture for a classroom management system and a scenarios designer tool (SceDer), both based on a Classroom Orc...
متن کاملClassroom Orchestration: The Third Circle of Usability
We analyze classroom orchestration as a question of usability in which the classroom is the user. Our experiments revealed design features that reduce the global orchestration load. According to our studies in vocational schools, paper-based interfaces have the potential of making educational workflows tangible, i.e. both visible and manipulable. Our studies in university classes converge on mi...
متن کاملA Part Practical and Part Conceptual Response to Orchestration
This response details how the notion of orchestration aligns with the perspective of user-centred design. It emphasises the importance of understanding and designing for the classroom, as well as involving key stakeholders, such as teachers and students in the design process. A focus is placed on the orchestration feature of visibility and a short case study is presented which describes and ref...
