In this paper, we describe a mixed-method study that examined the contribution of the Sandbox to students' evaluation and integration performance in the history domain.īarzilai, S. Making sources visible: Promoting multiple document literacy with digital epistemic scaffolds. In this paper, we analyze how students represent multiple documents using the document mapping scaffold.īarzilai, S., Mor-Hagani, S., Zohar, A. International Society of the Learning Sciences (ISLS).

Tal-Savir, D., Barzilai, S., Abed, F., Mor-Hagani, S., & Zohar, A. This paper describes how students use the document map to construct models of multiple scientific documents, how mapping is related to subsequent document-based argumentative writing, and how students grasp the aims of document mapping. Mapping multiple documents: From constructing multiple document models to argumentative writing. Papers about the "Knowledge Society Sandbox"īarzilai, S., Tal-Savir, D., Abed, F., Mor-Hagani, S., & Zohar, A. It is currently available in Hebrew and Arabic. These scaffolds currently include metacognitive monitoring and evaluation prompts and short explanations about relevant epistemic concepts (e.g., “credibility”).Ĭlick here to try out the Sandbox. Metacognitive epistemic scaffolds that promote regulation and understanding of knowledge construction and evaluation. These scaffolds help students evaluate the credibility and relevance of the information sources, identify their claims and supporting reasons, map the network of links among sources and claims, and write based on multiple information sources.ģ. Cognitive epistemic scaffolds that support knowledge construction processes. Students and teachers can add and remove information sources and create their own tasks.Ģ. Each includes a task statement and a set of information sources chosen to represent diverse viewpoints, genres, credibility, quality, and more. A collection of tasks that require evaluation, analysis, and integration of multiple information sources. The Sandbox includes three main components:ġ. The design of the Sandbox learning environment is based on current theoretical models of multiple document comprehension (Braasch & Bråten, 2017 Britt, Rouet, & Braasch, 2013 Rouet & Britt, 2011) and supports students through several phases of knowledge construction: understanding the task and its requirements, evaluating and selecting information sources, analyzing the information sources, integrating information, writing an integrative essay, and evaluating and revising this essay. The aim of the Sandbox is to promote students’ abilities to critically construct knowledge from multiple information sources and to foster their epistemic understandings of knowledge construction and evaluation. The Sandbox is available online to all public secondary schools in Israel. The " Knowledge Society Sandbox ” is a digital learning environment for secondary school students that my team and I have developed in collaboration with the Israeli Center for Educational Technology (CET).
