Scaffolding

I had never heard this term before but it makes a lot of sense. I think students need structure as students build on their previous experience, skills and knowledge, they can continue to learn and grow.

I need to develope a new course and I plan to use the eight tasks:

• Provide clear instructions
• Clarify purpose
• Keep students on task
• Offer assessment to clarify purpose
• Direct students to worthy sources
• Reduce uncertainty and disappointment
• Deliver efficiency
• Create momentum

in oder to allows student learning with technology instead of learning from technology.

Has anyone else used these tasks in developing and facilitating a class?
