Design patterns and pattern languages have recently emerged as a potential framework for addressing some of these challenges. However, the uptake of design patterns has been slow outside of the computer science community. We argue that this is largely a consequence of a weak positioning of pattern languages, as a form of delivering expert knowledge to layperson, and suggest an alternative view: the development of a pattern language as a community endeavour. In terms of open education, the workshop model can be viewed as an open production process for developing educational resources, in our case design patterns. We propose a model of pattern elicitation workshops, in which collaborative development of a pattern language provides a framework for sharing design knowledge within interdisciplinary communities. This model was iteratively developed at five international conferences. It was then postulated as a design pattern itself, encompassing a series of practices and a set of supporting tools. We believe this model could be applied in a broad range of communities concerned with the development of open digital educational resources.Fri Feb 04 12:19:06 CET 2011Computers in Human BehaviorAvailable online 14 February 200951079-1088Dealing with abstraction: Case study generalisation as a method for eliciting design patterns252009Abstraction Cases Design Generalisation asld-book asld2011 contel11 designapproaches designpatterns designresearch eLPBookMor education elp-feasst haifa-edtech jls10 ldg learningdesign learningdesigngrid lp mathgamespatterns methodology my myown olnet patternlanguagenetwork patterns ppw selected top tuebingenfeasst Developing a pattern language is a non-trivial problem.

Consequently, creating technology-enhanced environments and activities for learning mathematics is a challenging domain. It requires a synergism of several dimensions of design knowledge: usability, software design, pedagogical design and subject matter. This paper presents a set of patterns derived from a study on designing collaborative learning activities in mathematics for children aged 10-14, and a set of tools to support them.Mon Dec 28 20:46:15 CET 2009Teaching from Different Perspectives2003design elp-feasst learning patterns pedagogical pedagogicalpatterns programming roundanddeep teaching This pattern language in progress proposes some successful techniques to assist with teaching and learning. For professional educators, these patterns may seem obvious, even trivial, because they have used them so often. But for those newer to teaching, they offer a way for experienced teachers to pass on their experiences. But experienced teachers could also benefit from these patterns. Educators face new challenges regularly, particularly in fast-moving subject areas, and the experience captured in these patterns may help identify solutions for these new challenges.Mon Dec 21 01:16:08 CET 2009Planet: Pattern Language Network for Web 2.0 in Learning2009JISC designpatterns eLPBookMor elp-feasst final haifa-edtech my patternlanguagenetwork patterns polonsky project report The Planet (Pattern Language Network for Web 2.0 in Learning) project aimed to develop and demonstrate an effective community-based mechanism for capturing and sharing successful practice, based on the pattern approach. A pattern describes an effective solution to a recurrent problem embedded in a specific context and is characterised by being drawn from successful practice rather than from theory. Patterns are easy and intuitive to use, so supporting transfer of practice to new contexts. However, the process of eliciting and capturing patterns from authentic practice is not trivial and is rarely an inclusive community-based activity. It is this problem that Planet has sought to address.
