Keynote at e-Learning Patterns, Tübingen, March 4-6, 2009 http://www.iwm-kmrc.de/workshops/e-learning-patterns/ Video http://www.iwm-kmrc.de/workshops/e-learning-patterns/videos/Keynote1YishayMor.html http://www.iwm-kmrc.de/workshops/e-learning-patterns/videos/Keynote2YishayMor.html Abstract http://www.iwm-kmrc.de/workshops/e-learning-patterns/abstracts/patternscommunties.htm The construct of design pattern is often summarised as "the core of a solution to a problem in context". What, then, is the problem that design patterns solve, and in which contexts? As design patterns break new grounds in educational research and practice, challenging questions arise: how do we engage new audiences in the pattern paradigm? How do we adapt the form and modes of use of patterns to make them useful in diverse realms of practice? Why do we have such a strong conviction in the value of design patterns? The tradition of design patterns refers to concepts such as "timelessness" and "expertise". These are problematic in a world of accelerating change. Yet another fundamental principle is accentuated; the need to establish robust design languages capable of capturing the complexity of problems in our environment and offering verifiable solutions. I argue that design-level discourse is imperative in many critical domains of human activity, and that patterns should play a central role in such discourse. Over the last few years, my colleagues and I have been developing a methodology for participatory workshops for practical design patterns. This methodology has emerged from the "Learning Patterns" project, and is being refined by the "Pattern Language Network" project. In this talk, I will describe the methodology, its history and future plans, and provide some illustrative examples. I will also highlight some of the fundamental questions which is provokes.
Patterns for building patterns communities
- Patterns for building patterns communities Yishay Mor, Pattern Language Network, London Knowledge Lab, UK
- Learning Patterns was a Jointly Executed Integrating Research Project of the Kaleidoscope Network of Excellence, funded under the FP6 programme. For further details, please see http://lp.noe-kaleidoscope.org/
- The Pattern Language Network (Planet) project is a collaboration between Leeds Metropolitan University, Coventry University, Glasgow Caledonian University, Kings College London and London Knowledge Lab. It is funded by JISC under the Users and Innovation Programme. For more information see http://patternlanguagenetwork.org
- Think of a technology that you have encountered recently, which has changed your life in some way
- Think of an Eureka! Moment, where you understood how you could use this technology, or understood something by using the technology (or both)
- Draw it. (3 minutes) You can use words, but only as part of the drawing.
- Now look left & right, and find a pattern.
- Problem: Bad Design
- Context: Technology Enhanced Education
- the critical resource is not the capacity to produce, but the knowledge to do it right. Problem: The Design Divide the gap between those who have the expertise to develop high-quality tools and resources and those who don’t (Mor & Winters, 2008*)

- Learning patterns for the design and deployment of mathematical games lp.noe-kaleidoscope.org 1 year / 7 institutions / 6 countries / 16 team members / 6 workshops / >50 patterns Designing games for mathematical learning requires the assimilation and integration of deep knowledge from diverse domains of expertise - mathematics, games development, software engineering, learning and teaching. All are various facets of design knowledge. http://yish.blip.tv/file/1822412/
