Direct linkKirschner, P. A.; Kreijns, K.; Phielix, C.; Fransen, J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2015
Most distributed and virtual online environments for and pedagogies of computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) neglect the social and social-emotional aspects underlying the group dynamics of learning and working in a CSCL group. These group dynamics often determine whether the group will develop into a well-performing team and whether a…

De Wever, B.; Van Keer, H.; Schellens, T.; Valcke, M. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2009
This article examines the impact of the introduction of roles and the added value of self-assessment on students' level of knowledge construction in online asynchronous discussions in a first-year university course in instructional sciences. Students' postings in 20 discussion groups were used as the research data for this study. All messages,…

Pfister, H.-R.; Oehl, M. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2009
Net-based collaborative learning discourses often suffer from deficiencies such as lack of coherence and coordination. It is suggested that the provision of two functionalities, referencing and typing, which learners may optionally use to ground their contributions during a chat-based discourse, can improve collaborative learning. In particular,…

So, H.-J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2009
The purpose of this study is to explore how groups decide to use asynchronous online discussion forums in a non-mandatory setting, and, after the group decision is made, how group members use online discussion forums to complete a collaborative learning project requiring complex data gathering and research processes. While a large body of research…

Guldberg, K.; Pilkington, R. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2006
This paper analyses a sample of online discussions to evaluate the development of adult learners as reflective practitioners within a networked learning community. The context for our study is a blended learning course offering post-experience professional training to non-traditional university students. These students are parents and carers of…

Peer reviewedHodgson, V.; McConnell, D. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1995
Discusses the theory, nature, and benefits of cooperative learning. Considers the Cooperative Learning and Development Network (CLDN) trial in the JITOL (Just in Time Open Learning) project and examines the relationship between theories about cooperative learning and the reality of a group of professionals participating in a virtual cooperative…
