Abstract

SDR: Networking is a web-based learning environment made up of three elements intimately related: 1. An open-ended theoretical framework, built up from ‘theory bits’ taken from different disciplines (gestaltung, graphic design, media, communication, architectural theory, philosophy, and computation) 2. Individual and collaborative exercises, designed for students to explore in a practical way the theoretical content. 3. A comprehensive web system, which provides the tools to carry out a variety of processes of knowledge construction collaboratively. Altogether, the interrelationship of these three elements gives rise to an innovative pedagogic methodology which can contribute to build up the model of the education in the information age: an interdisciplinary and participatory education resulting from the interweaving of content, methods and tools.
