Assignment: Create a chart that compares and contrasts open and online learning design to support equity and multiple perspectives in distributed and open learning contexts.

Some questions to consider in your chart (you are welcome to expand upon or add in additional considerations):

1. What is the learning persona of the student?

• a ‘persona' is an assumed, fictional identity of a character. For the purposes of this assignment, your learning pod should imagine the characteristics of a fictional learner. The persona can be based on a mixture of different actual people, but you should never identify an individual.

• Keep in mind that nobody fits an ideal type. We all have barriers and challenges that we must overcome.

2. How would you describe this student's ideal learning context?

3. In your group's opinion, what are the barriers to learning that are preventing safe, flexible and supportive learning experiences and environments for this student?

4. Are there equity, social justice or cultural considerations that may be preventing safe, flexible and supportive learning experiences and environments for this student?
