Abstract
User experiences in learning management systems often correlate to the pedagogy used by the instructor. In this chapter, the user experience in common ground scholar (CGScholar) will be reviewed, aligned with the dominant pedagogy of the new learning theory developed by Cope and Kalantzis, and explained from three perspectives: the learner, the course designer, and the instructor. Relevant connections between the interface and the pedagogy the interface affords will be highlighted, such as community learning, self-pacing informed by analytics, creation of artifacts within a complete network and review system, and the development of course modules that can be reused, shared, and repurposed by instructors. Additionally, the impact of the available rubrics, analytics, mapping tool, and peer review configurations will be explained and demonstrated.
