Cognitive Technologies for Technology Learning

Tom Page, Gisli Thorsteinsson, Miika Lehtonen
Abstract

This article puts forward the pedagogical model “Network Oriented Study with Simulations” (NOSS) using simulation software and the ICT-based tool “Web Orientation Agent” (WOA) (Page et al., 2006) and supporting findings. The NOSS model was developed and implemented in CMC (computer mediated communications) type learning situations around the use of computers in technology education. In addition, this work utilises novel technologies such in the form of web-supported simulations and attempts to evaluate the effectiveness of such technologies in support of teaching, studying and learning.
