Abstract
This chapter describes the range of ways in which learning interventions can be visualised and represented, along with a discussion of the benefits of each of these and how they can be used as part of both the design process and as a means of making the inherent design of a learning activity explicit. These include the follow representations: textual, content map, course map view, pedagogy profile, task swimlane view, learning outcomes map, course dimensions view and principle/pedagogy matrix.
