Categorizing Pedagogical patterns by teaching activities and Pedagogical values

Abstract

The main contribution of this paper is a proposal for a universal pedagogical pattern categorization based on teaching values and activities. This categorization would be more sustainable than the arbitrary categorization implied by pedagogical pattern language themes. Pedagogical patterns from two central patterns languages are analyzed and categorized, and the result is a catalogue theoretically founded and practical in its application. The teaching values are derived from learning theories, implying the theoretical foundation of the catalogue. In order to increase the usability of the value-based categorization, we have combined it with a categorization based on teaching activities. The catalogue could be seen as a tool for combining pedagogical theories and patterns and it is a proposal for a solution to the problem of organizing pedagogical patterns.

Notes

1. Translated from Danish by the authors.

2. The word ‘create’ is used in broad sense including abstractions, reflections, and constructions.

3. This universal catalogue could be implemented as a web-resource and not as separate pdf files (as is the case for pattern languages right now), using the categorization described in as an index.
