The Solution Sheet is the environment where the user builds his/her own solution to the current problem. The functions of the Solution Sheet of ARI@ITALES are similar to those of the Solution Sheet of ARI-LAB 2.
In fact, a solution is constructed by pasting on the Solution Sheet the graphical representations produced in the microworlds and by inserting comments and descriptions.
The Solution Sheet is divided into three main parts.
In the interface zone above on the left, there is the text of the problem which must be solved.
In the zone above on the right, there are the icons corresponding to the microworlds.
By selecting one of them, the user enters the corresponding microworld.
The zone below is the workspace of the Solution Sheet, where it is possible to paste the representations realized in the microworlds or to insert comments and explanations both in the verbal language and in the symbolic one through the icon "Post it". This icon is in the lower zone of the workspace, where there are the commands for operating in this space (copying representations, erasing them, adding worksheets, inserting comments, etc.).
Unlike the Solution Sheet of ARI-LAB 2, in the Solution Sheet of ARI@ITALES it is possible to produce an image of the current page, to open the text of a problem previously prepared through the Text Editor, and to save the current solution brought off on the user's computer. All that is meant in order to carry out learning resources to be placed in a course for students.
