| Abstract: | The aim of this study was to examine the development of the metacognitive knowledge of a group of higher education students
who participated actively in an experiment based on a Computer Supported Collaborative Learning environment called KnowCat.
Eighteen university students participated in a 12-month learning project during which the KnowCat learning environment was
used to support scaffolding process among equals during problem-solving tasks. After using KnowCat, the students were interviewed
over their work in this shared workspace. Qualitative analysis revealed that the educational application of KnowCat can favour
and improve the development of metacognitive knowledge. |
