Abstract
This study presents an analysis that compares pre-post lesson plans by mathematics teacher-education students before and after the a math teaching-training course. During the course, the students learn a sets of princeples for knowledge building in a computer-supported learning environment and used Knowledge Forum as a tool to provide feedback and perform self-evaluation. Based on the differences between their first and second lesson plans, the researcher tried to examine whether the knowledge building principles change the process and outcomes of lesson design via the coding of Vygotsky’s ‘activity theory’. Researcher collected students’ teaching plans from Knowledge Forum.The results show that the computer-supported learning environment allows students to change the “teaching-exercise-activity” model.
