Computer Support for Building Collaborative Knowledge
نویسنده
چکیده
Innovative uses of global and local networks of linked computers make new ways of collaborative working, learning, and acting possible. In Group Cognition Gerry Stahl explores the technological and social reconfigurations that are needed to achieve computer-supported collaborative knowledge building—group cognition that transcends the limits of individual cognition. Computers can provide active media for social group cognition where ideas grow through the interactions within groups of people; software functionality can manage group discourse that results in shared understandings, new meanings, and collaborative learning. Stahl offers software design prototypes, analyzes empirical instances of collaboration, and elaborates a theory of collaboration that takes the group, rather than the individual, as the unit of analysis.

Perspectives on collaborative knowledge-building environments: toward a cognitive theory of computer support for learning
I am interested in what I refer to as collaborative Knowledge-Building Environments (KBEs).These are software environments for supporting the construction of knowledge by groups of people. I consider this to be a paradigmatic task of CSCL (computer supported collaborative learning) because I assume that the notion of collaborative learning that CSCL practitioners strive to support is a construc...

متن کاملA Model of Collaborative Knowledge-Building Based on Web2.0
The ubiquitous linking of computers in local and global networks makes possible the sharing of thoughts by people who are separated spatially or temporally. Many efforts are made to increase opportunities for effective collaborative working, learning and acting through innovative uses of computer technology, and one of these efforts is to build group knowledge collaboratively. This paper presen...
متن کاملB. (THEORY TRACK): THE ROLE OF ARTIFACTS IN COLLABORATIVE LEARNING Contributions to a Theoretical Framework for CSCL
Looking at computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) in terms of (a) collaborative knowledge building, (b) group and individual perspectives, (c) mediation by artifacts and (d) micro-analysis of conversation provides a rich, multidimensional starting point for conceptualizing and studying a specific variant of CSCL. These four contributions to CSCL are inter-related. The notion of collab...
متن کاملA Model of Collaborative Knowledge- Building
This paper presents a model of learning as a social process incorporating multiple distinguishable phases that constitute a cycle of personal and social knowledge-building. It explicitly considers the relationship of processes associated with individual minds to those considered to be socio-cultural. This model of collaborative knowledge-building incorporates insights from various theories of u...
