Did you use any "can be followed with" -rules? I am afraid that 10 is a 
lot to remember for students and with the rules you could reduce the 
number of types available in each state.

Isn't the waterfall model also rather restrictive? In that sense some 
kind of rules could make a lot of sense in here.

BTE: When using this typeset with programmer student, I would use the 
"progressive inquiry" typeset to generate discussion on the good and bad 
sides of the waterfall model. Just a thought.

Please, let us know how did it go.

Don't' know this model. Google told me that it is also a software 
development model. Interesting, tooo.

Is anyone interested in to create typeset for "extreme programming" 
(http://www.extremeprogramming.org/)? At least the user stories, 
elaboration and review of them,  release planning 
(http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?PlanningGame) etc. could be ran and this way 
teacher with help of knowledge building.

Nice - very nice.

I think with this you should consider the possibility to create one more 
way to browse and organize the notes of the knowledge building. Check 
out these notes in the dev list:

Tarmo knows if there is already something done with this - I guess not.
