Abstract

In this article, we introduce a student-centered tool. Its purpose is to facilitate the awareness of the student's own learning process, showing him or her the structures and conceptual networks involved in this learning process. The tool, a core planner, provides the student with a mind model to transform information into knowledge, and the prior conceptual anchors needed to assimilate this knowledge. The particularity of this organizer is that it simultaneously shows several possible levels of scaffolding: it is the student the one who chooses the level he or she needs or for which he or she is prepared for at a certain time.
