Cifuentes, Laurent; Mercer, Rene; Alverez, Omar; Bettati, Riccardo
TechTrends: Linking Research and Practice to Improve Learning, v54 n6 p44-50 Nov 2010
We report on the design, development, implementation, and evaluation of a case-based instructional environment designed for learning network engineering skills for cybersecurity. We describe the societal problem addressed, the theory-based solution, and the preliminary testing and evaluation of that solution. We identify an architecture for scaffolding case-based learning for problem-solving to inform design of case-based learning environments. (Contains 4 figures.)
