Theoretical and empirical underpinning of the concept of guidance in the process of Computer-Supported Inquiry-based Learning in secondary STEM-education Ghent University
This project focuses on the theoretical and empirical underpinning of the concept of guidance in the process of Computer-Supported Inquiry-based Learning (CoSIL) in secondary STEM-education. Specifically, the focus is on the frequency, duration and modality in which multiple types of guidance can work synergistically within a CoSIL-environment in order to support domain-specific knowledge, scientific inquiry skills and motivation for STEM.
Synergistic scaffolding in technology-enhanced STEM learning. How can technology help to balance between autonomy and guidance during scientific inquiry? Ghent University
This project focuses on how Computer-Supported Collaborative Inquiry should be brought into the educational practice of Science, Technology, Mathematics and Engineering (STEM) and how support should be designed to serve a diversity of students regarding the obtainment of deep knowledge construction, problem solving skills and motivation in science. Literature stresses that supporting multiple students in a technology-enhanced classroom ...
