As more and more schools obtain access to the internet, learners (including parents, teachers, and students) are realizing that the web is not particularly useful for substantial educational use in it's raw form. This is primarily due to the lack of collaborative knowledge-construction facilities integrated into the web framework as well as the lack of guiding structure and dynamic management of link and nodes. This paper outlines the hurdles one faces in using the web for learning, specifically in a collaborative knowledge-construction environment. It then suggests some theoretical solutions based directly on existing web environments, as well as on research and system prototypes in the areas of Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) and ITS authoring systems.
