Abstract Constructivist Computer-Based learning environments such as Rich Environments for Active Learning (REAL), Intensely Supported Learning Environments (ISLE) and Problem-Based-Learning (PBL) all dictate that knowledge and information is discovered through active and authentic search. This paper investigates the design and implemetation of an intelligent retrieval architecture and interface that supports the learner's search and retrieval needs in constructivist learning environments.
AbstractList Discusses problems in creating the information retrieval mechanisms used in constructivist computer-based learning environments to support knowledge discovery: (1) subject can not always be pre-specified and the learner may not know what to seek; (2) retrieval strategies differ considerably from conventional ones, with the search including data, text, concepts, graphics, video, and sound clips. Examines possible solutions. (Author/MSE)
