Abstract

There is a gap in our knowledge about what cognitions play a role while teachers scaffold students in CSCL. A case study was performed that investigated a history teacher’s behavior and cognitions. The quantitative results fit with what is known about teacher behavior, and the qualitative data adds an explanation of why the teacher acted the way he did. Major influences were the teacher’s beliefs about effective instruction and his prior knowledge of the students. The results show that although often not done explicitly, there is indeed a phase of diagnosing and evaluating students’ work connected to performing an intervention.
