It is intended to promote the building and exploration of connections between ideas. Keywords are used as the basis for connecting students' notes. A CSlLE database constructed by grade 5-6 students was analysed. Although students tend to use few keywords per note, the texts of their notes contain substantial and consistent domain vocabularies. A simulation was conducted of a form of procedural facilitation which would expose this phenomenon to students and significantly boost connectivity in the database.enBoosting Connectivity in a Student generated Collaborative DatabaseText
