This paper describes a study on online collaborative design in the context of teacher professional development. 25 teachers from different Spanish universities and disciplines participated in the study. The aim was to understand how to support teachers in interuniversity teams to collaborate fully online along the learning design process of a discipline-based situation that integrates ICT, a problem scarcely tackled in the literature. The described interpretive study, using mixed methods, explores the support to online co-design provided by a novel ICT community platform named ILDE (Integrated Learning Design Environment). Lessons drawn from the results can contribute to the improvement of online collaborative design processes in the context of teacher professional development. ; This work has been partially supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities [project EDU2017-84223-R], the Spanish State Research Agency (AEI) [projects TIN2017-85179-C3-2-R and TIN2014-53199-C3-2-R, TIN2014-53199-C3-3-R and TIN2017-85179-C3-3-R], the Regional Government of Castilla y León and the European Regional Development Fund [project VA018U16], the European Commission [project 588438-EPP-1-2017-1-EL-EPPKA2-KA], the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness [project MDM-2015-0502] and RecerCaixa (CoT).

This article describes a study of online collaborative design in the context of teacher professional development. Twenty-five teachers from different Spanish universities participated in the online course. The aim was to understand how to support teachers in interuniversity teams to collaborate fully online throughout the learning design process of a scenario based on their discipline integrating information and communications technology (ICT), an issue scarcely tackled in the literature. The described interpretive study, using mixed methods, explores the support of online co-design provided by a novel ICT community platform named ILDE (Integrated Learning Design Environment). Lessons drawn from the results can contribute to the improvement of online collaborative design processes in the context of teacher professional development. ; This work has been partially supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science, Innovation and Universities [project EDU2017-84223-R], the Spanish State Research Agency (AEI) [projects TIN2017-85179-C3-2-R and TIN2014-53199-C3-2-R, TIN2014-53199-C3-3-R and TIN2017-85179-C3-3-R], the Regional Government of Castilla y León and the European Regional Development Fund [project VA018U16], the European Commission [project 588438-EPP-1-2017-1-EL-EPPKA2-KA], the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness [project MDM-2015-0502] and RecerCaixa (CoT).

Recent research suggests that training teachers as learning designers helps promote technologyenhanced educational innovations. However, little attention has been paid so far to the interplay between the effectiveness of Teacher Professional Development (TPD) instructional models promoting the role of teachers as designers and the capabilities (and pitfalls) of the heterogeneous landscape of available Learning Design (LD) tooling employed to support such TPD. This paper describes a mixed method study that explores the use of a novel Integrated Learning Design Environment (ILDE) for supporting a TPD program on Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and Collaborative Learning (CL). 36 Adult Education (AE) and Higher Education (HE) in-service teachers, with little experience on both CL and ICT integration, participated in a study encompassing training workshops and follow-up fulllifecycle learning design processes (from initial conceptualization to implementation with a total of 176 students). The findings from our interpretive study showcase the benefits (and required effort) derived from the use of an integrated platform that guides teachers along the main phases of the learning design process, and that automates certain technological setup tasks needed for the classroom enactment. The study also highlights the need for adaptation of the TPD instructional model to the learning curve associated to the LD tooling, and explores its impact on the attitude of teachers towards future adoption of LD practices. ; This research has been partially supported by the European Union (project 531262-LLP-2012-ES-KA3-KA3MP), by the Spanish Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness (projects TIN2011-28308-C03-02, TIN2014-53199-C3-2-R, TIN2014-53199-C3-3-R, MDM-2015-0502), the Regional Government of Castilla y León (projects VA277U14 and VA082U16) and RecerCaixa.
