Title: Towards Didactic Variety - Learning Outcomes as a core element of Learning Design
Presenter: Professor Peter Baumgartner, Danube University Krems

As a consequence of the Bologna reform, a shift from input orientation towards output orientation can be noticed in Higher Education. This has implications on the design of learning: It is not primarily the student who needs to be in the focus of learning design. Learning design needs to develop a better focus on real learning outcomes, when practical achievements and student engagement should be assured. This has implications on the design of the curriculum, educational programme and/or assessments.

In this online presentation, the notion of output oriented learning design will be explained. The presenter discusses learning outcomes from different perspectives, explains the relevance of didactic variety in education, and provides methodological backgrounds.
