Elearning Design Framework

Below is an e learning design framework I have developed that has attempted to blend the concepts within Blooms Taxonomy and Learning Engagement theory, while considering various learning styles, and curricular outcomes.  The framework is applied in the form of a checklist to work through during, and specifically after, the development of an e learning activity.   It is envisaged that should there be areas within the checklist that have little or no ticks, the need to adjust or scaffold the learning activity accordingly would be apparent.
