An Influence on the Learning Process

Abstract

The manner in which participants interpreted the activities from their preconceptions,negotiated an understanding of the investigative situation,and then navigated their learning pathways is an aspect of using digital technologies that points towards it being viewed through a hermeneutic lens.The learners’ preconceptions are drawn from the underlying discourses that shape their interpretations.Initially,the speed of response by the computer to inputted data and the filtering of emerging patterns through a visual lens,were identified as elements of the learning experience in this particular medium.
