| Abstract: | This article describes a blueprint for an online learning environment that is based on prominent instructional design and
assessment theories for supporting learning in complex domains. The core of this environment consists of formative assessment
tasks (i.e., assessment for learning) that center on professional situations. For each professional situation, three levels of situational complexity
are defined, and within each of these three levels, tasks are offered that differ in the degree of support offered to the
learner. This environment can support (beginning) professionals in complex domains in gaining insight into the available repertoire
of behavior in professional situations, as well as into the quality and effectiveness of that behavior (assessment criteria),
while simultaneously helping them to develop insight into the standards that their own behavior should (eventually) match. |
