A Web-based Environment for Assembling Multimedia Learning Stories in Irish Primary Education Rasmussen J; Butler D; Davenport G September 2002
Abstract The Empowering Minds Learning Network is a web-based environment that supports discussion and reflection on classroom activities. The environment collects and organizes multimedia files and documents from participating students and teachers, allowing them to share their work with each other, with their communities, and with the world. The environment also gathers extensive data on teachers' usage of the service, providing a means for study and personal reflection on each teacher’s emergent interests and pedagogical development. The application is currently being used to support Constructionalist learning with new digital technologies in Irish primary schools.
