Supporting self-regulated learning in computer-based learning environments: systematic review of effects of scaffolding in the domain of science education

Despite the widespread assumption that students require scaffolding support for self-regulated learning (SRL) processes in computer-based learning environments (CBLEs), there is little clarity as to which types of scaffolds are most effective. This ...
Task-Adapted Concept Map Scaffolding to Support Quizzes in an Online Environment
ITiCSE '15: Proceedings of the 2015 ACM Conference on Innovation and Technology in Computer Science Education

This paper investigates the effect of different forms of concept maps as scaffolding techniques to support answering quizzes in an online learning environment. Concept maps which represent a course topic have being utilised as a scaffolding technique ...
