N2 - Knowledge Building pedagogy (Scardamalia & Bereiter, 1996) offers a Knowledge Age framework for education by supporting students' capacity for innovation. Students work in a community, building on each other's knowledge, exploring and refining each other's theories, and engaging in the progressive improvement of their ideas. This knowledge work is supported by Knowledge Forum (Scardamalia, 2004) -the online environment that provides scaffolding supports for idea development. Teachers who are eager to explore Knowledge Building pedagogy and Knowledge Forum technology in their classrooms may not know where to begin, and application of Knowledge Building principles may not be obvious. To aid their process of invention, examples of Knowledge Building principles in action should prove helpful. The goal of this session is to provide such examples, and to collectively develop effective strategies, curriculum and resources that would allow newcomers to get started with Knowledge Building.
