Questions about the suitability of cognitively-oriented instructional approaches for students of different academic levels are frequently raised by teachers and researchers. This study examined student participation in knowledge-building discourse in two implementations of a short inquiry unit focusing on environmental…

Technology offers promising opportunities for creating new types of classroom learning environments. This paper describes three technology models used by teacher education interns: electronic portfolios, negotiative concept mapping, cognote-supported electronic discussions. As implemented in the current study, these models invoke…

Diving  in  the dynamic Amazonian social  life, ruled by  the temporality of  waters, the article follows, through dialogues between History and Literature, marajoara populations’ ways of  being and living,  highlighting  their African/Indigenous  heritage  and  local knowledge, which  resulted  from  cultural…

By supplying various combinations of advanced instructions and different forms of exercises individual learning processes within the impartation of basic knowledge can be activated and supported at best. The fundamentals of our class “Introduction to spatial–geometric cognition using CAD” are…

It has been suggested there is a knowledge base that surrounds the use of 3D modeling within the engineering design process and correspondingly within engineering design graphics education. While solid modeling receives a great deal of attention and discussion relative…

This paper presents several computer related techniques that encourage EDG students to develop knowledge at levels 4 and 5 of Bloom's taxonomy.  These knowledge levels are associated with generalized problem solving in undergraduates and research capabilities in graduate students.  The…
