COFALE: An Authoring System for Creating Web-Based Adaptive Learning Environments Supporting Cognitive Flexibility

Overview Constructivism is a learning theory that states that people learn by actively constructing their own knowledge, based on prior knowledge. A significant number of ICT-based constructivist learning systems have been proposed in recent years. A critical problem related to the design and use of this kind of systems has been the lack of a practical means to facilitate the instructional design process. The research aims to help designing truly constructivist and adaptive learning environments. The approach is based on a set of operational criteria for certain aspects of constructivism: The authors uses these criteria as a useful pedagogical framework to provide tools and guidelines facilitating the instructional design process. One facet often mentioned as being strongly relevant to constructivism is cognitive flexibility.
