Belinda’s Doctoral Journey
My doctoral journey begins from here …
Learning Design, Learning Science.
Enhance learning and share an interest in technology.
Learning design, traditionally referred to as instructional design, has primarily concentrated on educational technology. However, the learning sciences have recently developed as a distinct community (Hoadley, 2004). While both communities aim to enhance learning and share an interest in technology, they differ significantly in four key areas: scope and goals, theoretical commitments, methods, and historical development (Hoadley, 2004).
Lexicon
Providing a list of lexicon with definitions of the topics, key terms, and related theoretical frameworks is important for ensuring clarity and a shared understanding among researchers. It helps in accurately interpreting and applying theoretical concepts in practical settings, enhancing the overall quality and coherence of research and instructional design efforts.

“Learning Science is an interdisciplinary field that studies teaching and learning. . . [in] a variety of settings. . . to better understand the cognitive and social processes that result in the most effective learning and to use this knowledge to redesign classrooms and other learning environments so that people learn more deeply and effectively”.(Sawyer, 2022, p. 1)
