| Popis: | The present paper summarizes the new proposal for the reconceptualization and understanding of the learner experience at the Universitat Oberta de Catalunya (UOC). As an unaivodable effort to go along with our students practices and realities, the UOC is opening a new space within its learning technologies and pedagogical practices, where students will have the freedom to work and integrate the knowledge spread in the Internet, to collaborate and nurture from each other without strict rules, to create new knowledge by using the web tools they usually use, and in general to construct their own learning process according to their own formula. At the present time, we are in the phase of design of the experience, and this paper will describe the design of new learning spaces according to the Activity Theory. |
