Activity guide: an approach to scripted inquiry learning

摘要: Recently, there has been a growing interest in Exploratory Learning Environments (ELEs) which learning occurs through guided exploration and problem solving [1]. The characteristics of with ELEs can be seen to share number common issues inquiry learning, students design carry out investigations order acquire knowledge about the domain under investigation [2]. As part Personal Inquiry (PI) project, we are developing software application, called Activity Guide, support learning. Guide specifically aims support: (i) defining, organising carrying their inquiry, (ii) decision making progression (iii) movement between individual, group class levels, (iv) authoring customisation inquiry. Decisions made evolution toolkit have possible implications for ELEs, particularly terms task sequencing, collaboration, teacher orchestration authoring.
