Fadable Scaffolding with Cognitive Tool

摘要

The main issue addressed in this paper is how to accumulate cognitive experiences of learning with cognitive tool to develop learning skill. Cognitive tool gives learners a scaffold for learning process, which allows them to externalize/visualize the process or results of learning and to reify the learning process. Such reification enables the learners to gain cognitive experience of learning. This paper discusses a fadable scaffolding method for accumulating such experiences, in which functions available on the tool are fadable in a learner-adaptable way.
