It builds on the “in medias res” framework and more specifically on a forward-oriented approach to design for learning: one that takes a pro-active design stance with respect to each of the phases of an extended lifecycle. We draw on fieldwork notes and interview data to describe two cases that illustrate some of the key features of the approach. Recommendations for further R&amp;D in the area of design for learning are provided, derived from the theoretical framework, and illustrated in this paper.</p><p><strong>Keywords: </strong>design for learning; indirection; sustainable design</p><p>(Published: 16 September 2013)</p><p><strong>Citation:</strong> Research in Learning Technology Supplement 2013, <strong>21</strong>: 20290 - http://dx.doi.org/10.3402/rlt.v21i0.20290</p&gt;}, journal={Research in Learning Technology}, author={Dimitriadis Yannis and Goodyear Peter}, year={2013}, month={Sep.} }
