Experience-based pedagogical designs for elearning

In this paper, we discuss a selection of experience-based pedagogical designs, which stand to make the most of the opportunities afforded by information and communications technology. In the literature on experience-based pedagogical designs there is no clear distinction made between first person experience and third person experience (also seen as stories). In an information and communications technology-based learning (ICT) environment, reference to the first person is inherent in the design, and stories are seen as learning resources. Hence, in this paper we examine the potential role of ICT from two angles: · the sources of experience and stories, and · the need for peers to support the building of experience and whether such peer group support can be organized in a technological environment
