Dimensions of Learning Hub

Dimensions of Learning (DoL) Hubs

In recent years ANSN has provided professional learning opportunities in the ‘Dimensions of Learning’, based on research by the Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning (McREL) organisation and related practical experience. Teachers and school leaders – as individuals and teams – will again be able to join an ANSN DoL Hub, where they will explore instructional design models related to the five types of thinking (DoL) that are essential to successful learning.

Work in the Hub is based on the premise that all learning takes place against the backdrop of learners’ attitudes and perceptions (Dimension 1) and their use (or lack of use) of productive habits of mind (Dimension 5). Dimensions 2, 3 and 4 examine ways of viewing instructional strategies and assessment as types of thinking that allow students to take accountability for their own learning. There is an emphasis on collaborative work in DoL programs (below left), which are led by ANSN national networker Hanan Harrison.

In addition to the introductory Hub work, ANSN also offers three-day Advanced Workshops in Dimension of Learning. These are designed for educators who currently use DoL as their learning design framework, to help them enhance their classroom practice further, through an alignment of curriculum, pedagogy and assessment For details, click here
