Design Patterns :: Forum

Thanks Jim for setting up this community. I hope there are others in the Emerge network who are interested in pursuing this subject. For me patterns are a very intuitive and effective way of communicating what we know about successful design - whether it be in architecture, user interfaces or indeed learning. I'm very interested in exploring how we might use patterns within the e-Framework and develop mechanisms for mining or harvesting learning patterns. (I use those terms deliberately - like Alexander I think patterns are out there - they can be abstracted from examples of things that work - they are therefore not "made up" as such but "collected" in some way from the domain of interest).

Looking forward to talking to you and others more about this.
