Abstract

WaldenÕs Paths provides annotated guided paths over World-Wide Web pages. Designed as an approach for organizing classroom use of contextualized Web-based material, WaldenÕs Paths provides a general mechanism suitable for use in implementing a range of different pedagogical strategies. This paper reports on some of the uses that teachers have made of WaldenÕs Paths. One of the surprises for us in this project has been the range of ways in which WaldenÕs Paths can be used in practice.
