Design of an Understanding-Oriented (UO) Pedagogy

According to (Beetham and Sharpe in Rethinking pedagogy for a digital age: designing and delivering e-learning. Routledge, 2013), even though pedagogy has changed dramatically over the years (e.g., the emergence of teaching in the virtual world), the original sense of it did not change at all. “Pedagogy” initially referred to the process of leading or guiding to learn, through which the dialogue between teaching and learning and that between theory and practices were essential (Daniels in Vygotsky and pedagogy. Routledge, 2016). Therefore, during the design of the UO pedagogy, its potential for the dialogue between teaching and learning and that between theory and practices deserved attention and effort.
