Abstract:

The rising expectations for changing traditional classrooms, where chalk and talk as well as desks and texts are predominant, were accelerating because of the explosion of knowledge and the growing demands of the workforce (Roschelle, Pea, Hoadley, Gordin, & Means, 2000). Accordingly, if the goal then is to educate and qualify every student, schools are challenged to create a way to move toward what is termed "student-centric" model and give every student a chance to learn and interact.
