The origins of CSILE (Computer Supported Intentional Learning Environments) are in research on knowledge building, on the nature of expertise, and on the socio-cultural dynamics of innovation. CSILE was designed to (a) make advanced knowledge processes accessible to all participants, including children, (b) foster the creation and continual improvement of public artifacts or community knowledge (Scardamalia, 2002), and (c) provide a community space for carrying out this knowledge building work collaboratives.

The term "knowledge building" (as a definable educational enterprise) originated with CSILE and accompanying scholarly works, and represents an integrated framework for knowledge building pedagogies, practices, and environments (Bereiter, C., 2002; Bereiter and Scardamalia, 1989, 1993; Scardamalia et al, 1989; Scardamalia, 2002). CSILE was first prototyped in a university course in 1983. By 1986 a fully-functioning networked version was in daily use in an elementary school. In 1995 it was reengineered, with its affordances for knowledge building substantially enhanced, and published as Knowledge Forum ( http://www.knowledgeforum.com) by Learning in Motion.
