Learning Format Innovation - A Conceptual Framework

Abstract

[EN] This study engages in the identified research gap of a conceptual framework to systematically develop learning format innovation projects. The so-called “Learning Format Innovation” (short: LFI) approach provides a structured five-phase model that serves as a conceptual guide for the development of any type of new learning format. LFI starts with the analysis of the enacted learning approach followed by the conceptualisation of the intended new learning format. Then the intended format becomes translated into concrete touch point experiences along the main constituents. In phase four the materialization into the new learning format takes place. During the final phase the effectiveness and resonance of the evolving new format is evaluated and necessary adaptations are identified. A case study of the transition of an established “semi-active”learning approach into a new “blended immersive AI supported” learning format is prototypically used to illustrate the application of the designed approach.
