Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to explore ways in which teachers can use technology to create learning environments for their students. Such contexts are characterised by knowledge building and information exploration, which enable learners to use processes and develop skills fundamental to discovery based learning principles. We have developed a number of courses at the University level which, while the students enrolled in them attend classes on campus, contain resources that the students may need on line and also provide a context in which students can share their work, based in technological environments, with others – both at the production stage for constructive feedback and when completed in order to share their ideas with other professionals
