Subclaims¶

q1 i? The six dimensions (spatio-temporal, collaboration/social, session, personalization, data security and privacy, and pedagogy) are categories of conditions a designer should analyze as part of front-end analysis. → Honebein Peter C 2021 q1 i? The primary gap is absence of guidance for analyzing values (matters of opinion representing learning goals, priorities about instructional outcomes, methods, and power to make decisions). → Honebein Peter C 2021 (2)

Theoretical commentary analyzing the Giannakas et al. (2018) review through the instructional theory framework, identifying its six dimensions as conditions. The article offers no empirical data for this claim.

"The six dimensions that form the backbone of the authors’ investigation (spatio-temporal, collaboration/social, session, personalization, data security and privacy, and pedagogy) are essentially categories of “conditions” (matters of fact representing learner, content, context, and instructional-design constraints) that a designer should analyze as a part of front-end analysis."
