Conclusions<br />

The shared journal systems provides an opportunity for new forms of teach<strong>in</strong>g and learn<strong>in</strong>g, forms which<br />

provide support for learn<strong>in</strong>g by do<strong>in</strong>g and for work<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> the performance environment (typically outside the<br />

college classroom). These new forms of teach<strong>in</strong>g and learn<strong>in</strong>g have much <strong>in</strong> common with electronic<br />

performance support systems which are now be<strong>in</strong>g implemented <strong>in</strong> bus<strong>in</strong>ess and <strong>in</strong>dustry. Technology can be<br />

an aid to improved human competency and performance by provid<strong>in</strong>g support for articulation, communication,<br />

process<strong>in</strong>g, analysis, and reflection on human experience. The ISJS implements this type of support structure<br />

and offers great potential for br<strong>in</strong>g<strong>in</strong>g dynamic support systems to bear on the problems of aid<strong>in</strong>g and<br />

improv<strong>in</strong>g human performance.<br />
