Goal-Based Scenarios

"GBS are developed at the Institute for the Learning Sciences as authentic environments for students to gain process skills and requisite conceptual knowledge" (Guzdial & Kehoe in Journal of Interactive Learning Research, vol 9, no3/4, 1998). Students using GBS are provided with an interesting situation in which they have goals to achieve... Students' progress is compared against a model of a successful process, and when students fail, they are provided conceptual and process information (usually presented in story form) to allow them to understand and correct their failure.
