Abstract

Especially in the context of computer-based learning, it is crucial to understand how technology can be used to foster high-quality knowledge acquisition. According to Jonassen (2001), high-quality knowledge acquisition is only achieved if learners actively interact with technology and, thus, utilize technological devices as cognitive tools. The purpose of this paper is to illustrate how a typical authoring tool, TEE-machine, can be adapted as a cognitive tool. Furthermore, results of an evaluation questionnaire assessing knowledge acquisition with the TEE-machine during several regular university courses will be discussed. The results show that learners think that they acquired a lot of knowledge during the courses, and that they were able to apply this knowledge to new situations.
