A Framework for Designing Metacognitive Scaffolds in Ill-structured Problem-Solving Using eLearning Authoring Tools: A Design and Development Study

• In Event: DELT- Frameworks for Student Learning (v)

Short Description

This study focused on the development a computer-based interactive content design framework to guide the design of metacognitive scaffolds in ill-structured problem-solving instruction. The framework was composed by synthesizing research and practical literature, and then evaluated by experts. The completed framework includes metacognitive strategies, instructional design strategies, interactive media types, question prompts, and feedback. Instructional designers, instructors, and other key stakeholders could follow the guidelines to create metacognitive-based ill-structured problem-solving instruction using e-Learning authoring tools.
