Studies of Integrated Learning Systems have endorsed their potential for enhancing pupils' learning, but they have also highlighted the importance of the context and method of use in influencing the nature and quality of the learning outcomes. This paper describes an evaluation of a new version of this type of software which is explicitly designed to make links with several external factors, in particular with another software application for supporting investigative work in practical science. The evaluation adopts a situated approach which explores the contributions to the learning process made by the teacher,the student as well as the software itself. The results amplify the value of small group working, the role of the teacher and the aspects of software design which help to secure the benefits of the system. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
