Notes on Learning Architecture Solutions

Janine Bowes reports on a presentation by Stephen Downes, currently flitting all about Australia. I wanted to capture these points as they are important and relevant to other forms of online interaction beyond e-learning: "Some key points made by Stephen.
  • incremental development and roll out is important because end users are rarely ready to adopt multiple changes simultaneously
  • software that needs training should be regarded as 'broken'
  • care is needed when consultation with users re software development as sometimes the requirements they articulate can tend to be whatever entrenches the status quo
  • it is important to be conscious of the affordances offered by a system - good systems will not lock you in"
