Abstract

This paper reports the co-creation process carried out during the development of a web-based visual representation model for authoring blended learning designs. The results of several participatory design workshops with high school teachers of two school communities have allowed to advance the development process through iterative cycles of refinement and improvement. The authoring tool resulting from the co-creation process supports teachers in the planning and visualization of complex blended learning scenarios (including hybrid massive online courses, flipped classroom and problem-based learning designs). Our experience contributes to the research community with a case study on using co-creation in technology-enhanced learning, where we discuss the challenges and opportunities found during the implementation process of this collaborative and participatory approach.
