Learning Design Support Environment (LDSE) is a project funded under the EPSRC/ESRC TLRP programme which builds on the LKL pedagogic planner (also called London Pedagogy Planner, a now dead project) - Daniel K. Schneider 10:31, 13 November 2009 (UTC).

According to Cloudworks, retrieved 10:31, 13 November 2009 (UTC), The system includes the following sections and things a designer can do:

* Pathways to designs for a session
* Can define: aims, prerequisites, duration, topics, learning outcomes, teaching methods, assessment, alignment – output validation document
* Provides numerous prompts, checking, opportunities for refining: for example check definitions of LOs via prompts (an ontology of learning outcomes), etc select LOs, Select learning activity sequence, define keywords for topics
* Can populate LAMS sequence 1 with content assets, preview, evaluate or edit learning sequence
* Could select a learning approach – didactic instruction, collaborative learning, inquiry learning etc
* Then type in a learning outcome – can search on existing set of outcomes to see which ones match
* Also want to be able to model the kind of searching tool that the teacher is using
* Experimenting with bringing these different tools together and making connects between them, a kind of scrapbook complier – can find existing resources and edit them and import into the LDSE tool and can annotate them:
* Can link to an authoring environment for creating and editing learning objects such as the GLO tool
* Can also drag in LAMS sequences
* A link to some existing examples such as iKOPER sequences
* Can link into and edit phoebe examples
* Can provide a walk through scenario of what a users might do:
* Select learning outcomes,
* Find learning designs,
* Test against theory,
* Fill in details,
* Build,
* Implement and
* Evaluate
