Abstract
This paper focuses on pre-service teachers' use of the knowledge building principles when transformed into scaffolds to support and orient online discourse. Student teachers' inquiry was on teaching in a networked classroom. The use of the scaffolds was tracked over a three-year period, and analyzed in both quantitative and qualitative ways. Results reveal that student teachers developed a proper understanding of the scaffolds, as measured by the level of adequacy obtained through a detailed analysis of their individual online activity and external appreciation. Online discourse for knowledge building purposes unfolded.
