Rethinking the “Investigation Course” in Primary School

The investigation course functions as a framework for the introduction and exploitation of digital media in the didactic-learning process, focusing on alternative forms of experimentation, exploration, knowledge structuring, expression, collaboration and communication for students and teachers. In this study we present ldquoThe Peace Symbolrdquo cross-thematic educational scenario and activities as a pedagogic intervention by using the multimedia programming Logo-like environment MicroWorlds Pro with students of primary school. We attempt to gain more insight into and contribute to the discussion on some critical elements of planning, developing and implementing an effective constructionist approach.
