Answer to Question 1

The computer program itself may function as an expert-like collaborator, supporting the developing skills and strategies of the learner. The computer may also be a link between the learner and remote experts or more knowledgeable peers who may scaffold the student's learning.

Answer to Question 2

A person's self-efficacy has been shown to affect the processes used to select goals (such as possible careers) and activities (such as taking particular courses and engaging in extracurricular activities), the cognitive processes used to meet the demands of various tasks (such as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation), motivational processes (such as persistence and self-reinforcement), and emotions (such as excitement, curiosity, eagerness, anxiety, and fear).
