The combination of a Client and a browser delivers ultimate flexibility. So maximizing that knowledge production and making knowledge advances available to the community is critical, in that 4th grade science lab and that high-tech think tank. True knowledge building communities depend on a specific organizational design, one that defines each person as a contributor. Knowledge Forum does just that. With the knowledge-building tools in Knowledge Forum, users pose questions, define their own goals, and collaborate with peers as they acquire and build the knowledge database.
Users view the knowledge base from multiple perspectives, thus discovering new connections.
Students and researchers select different scaffolds to support processes such as reading difficult material, theory-building, and debate. These specially-designed scaffolds support social and cognitive operations that further understanding. The number of databases one Server can host depends on the speed of your network, the storage capacity of your server hardware, and the speed of the server hardware's processor. With that, you're ready to connect to the database through your desktop machine over a network. However, since the Client application has additional interface refinements, the display is visually different.
