Digital support may merely serve an illustrative and training function, or it may provide the special environment for locating the problem of positional counting as a part of meaningful actions by the students. Following the Activity approach, we aimed to scaffold the students' own learning actions, in such a way as to reveal the origin of the multi-digit number concept. Thus, we used counting in other-base systems as a way for students to reconsider the reasoning behind familiar operations in the most common base-ten system.</p><p><strong>Objective: </strong>The purpose of this paper is to present the approach to computer support which we have designed, based on our analysis of the activity content related to the multi-digit number concept, and to discuss some preliminary results of the first training series.</p><p><strong>Design: </strong>The approach to educational environment design developed within the Learning Activity theory defines the ways in which a computer becomes essential. The computer should provide a transparent interface which allows students to perform transformations with objects which will react accordingly. The additional opportunities to perform concept-mediated orientation procedures should also be scaffolded by digital means. For the purposes of our study, the computer-based educational module \"Interstellar wanderers\" was designed. Four groups of students from 2nd to 5th grade (8-12 years of age, 20 children in total) participated in the experimental computer-based lessons (over 30 hours); classroom observations, videotaped discussions, and logs of students' individual work in the computer simulation were used for analysis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>The preliminary results of the experimental teaching showed that the computer support which we developed may scaffold students' progress toward acquisition of the multi-digit number concept through a reflective re-thinking of the well-learned decimal system.
