Abstract
This paper describes a model for design of web-based learning system which is guided by two fundamental, and somewhat contrasting, design themes: problem-based interactivity; and progressive scaffolding. It is proposed that effective systems should be built around core problems, which require the active engagement of the learner. It is also proposed that the learner should be provided with scaffolding to support problem solution in a progressive manner going from the most general and minimal guidance to the most specific and detailed. It is then up to the learner to select the tool at the necessary level for problem solution. A prototype system for teaching web design, which was designed to examine the two fundamental components of this approach, and on-going usability testing of the prototype are also discussed.
