Abstract
THIS PAPER describes the COnceptual DAtabase Modeling Advisor, CODAMA. Tactics for presenting principles, and rules pertaining to the complex transfer task of elaborating an entityrelationship diagram were first identified prior to designing CODAMA. Models developed for formative evaluation of learning were used to monitor students’ performance. Decisions about physical implementation were made following a complex instructional design process. Therefore, technical aspects did not have any influence on CODAMA’s strategy of intervention.
