Bounded Field  ----------------------  Open Field ,[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],[object Object],Learning outcomes (LOs) & assessment Precise learning outcomes, with simulation tasks based closely on outcomes – pre-defined LOs Bodies of evidence required to be produced to benchmark standards, but less emphasis on pre-specified outcomes Alignment with traditional learning & teaching methods Teaching is aligned with tasks and outcomes, often according to an academic structure, eg lecture – seminar; learning is heavily ‘ pushed ’ by curriculum structure Teaching is provided where needed according to learners ’ needs, often according to a professional, just-in-time learning structure; learning is ‘ pulled ’ by learners Operational model Linear domain procedures, eg predictable document chain – more operationally predictable More varied, open or diffuse domain procedures, eg transactional guidelines but no specific document chain – less operationally predictable Student outputs Specific documents, drafted to specific standards, eg initial writ; fixed or correct versions expected as student output Procedures that involve a variety of documentation, or documents that cannot be specified easily in advance, eg negotiated agreements; various versions acceptable Resources Resources are tied closely to tasks and learning outcomes – highly model driven Simulation resources are not linked to tasks; learner needs to structure transaction through interactive querying of resources – highly learner driven
