A Multi-Scale Approach to Learning Innovation Design

Abstract

This paper presents the “Learning Innovation Network”, a learning innovation multi-scale design tool, developed by METID Politecnico di Milano, that provides a synoptic vision of the factors enabling a learning-teaching process. The decision makers at each level are stimulated in reflecting about actors, objectives and constraints, but also supported in designing in a creative and integrated context all the components (physical and digital) of a transformative collaborative experience (channels, activities, contents, relationships with the outside world, etc.), shifting the focus from the “content centred” approach, still deep-rooted in traditional academic institutions.
