Temporal Networks in Collaborative Learning: A Case Study
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Saqr, Mohammed; Peeters, Ward – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2022
Social Network Analysis (SNA) has enabled researchers to understand and optimize the key dimensions of collaborative learning. A majority of SNA research has so far used static networks, i.e., aggregated networks that compile interactions without considering "when" certain activities or relationships occurred. Compressing a temporal…

A Creative Problem Solving-Based Flipped Learning Strategy for Promoting Students' Performing Creativity, Skills and Tendencies of Creative Thinking and Collaboration
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Lu-Ho Hsia; Yen-Nan Lin; Gwo-Jen Hwang – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2021
In most performing classes, such as dance or performing arts, students passively follow the scripts or demonstration provided by the teacher, and focus on imitating the acts and practicing repeatedly. Although researchers have begun trying out flipped learning to provide students with opportunities for self-learning and to increase the time for…

Developing a Model of Conflict in Virtual Learning Communities in the Context of a Democratic Pedagogy
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Ozturk, Tugba H.; Hodgson, Vivien – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2017
In this paper, we argue that in order to get a fuller understanding of the complexity of conflict in democratic pedagogies in online and blended learning settings, it is important to know not only how to manage or resolve it, but also how it is triggered and can be avoided. The emancipatory nature of democratic pedagogies fosters differences, and…

Mobile-Based Collaborative Learning in the Fitness Center: A Case Study on the Development of English Listening Comprehension with a Context-Aware Application
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Liu, Gi-Zen; Chen, Jing-Yao; Hwang, Gwo-Jen – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2018
Mobile applications on the go have been adopted in many fields and areas. However, there has been little research regarding the development and use of a context-aware application for users to improve their English listening comprehension through collaboration. This research aimed at helping users improve their listening comprehension with a…

Can Creative Podcasting Promote Deep Learning? The Use of Podcasting for Learning Content in an Undergraduate Science Unit
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Pegrum, Mark; Bartle, Emma; Longnecker, Nancy – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2015
This paper examines the effect of a podcasting task on the examination performance of several hundred first-year chemistry undergraduate students. Educational researchers have established that a deep approach to learning that promotes active understanding of meaning can lead to better student outcomes, higher grades and superior retention of…

Development of a Peer-Assisted Learning Strategy in Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning Environments for Elementary School Students
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Tsuei, Mengping – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2011
This study explores the effects of Electronic Peer-Assisted Learning for Kids (EPK), on the quality and development of reading skills, peer interaction and self-concept in elementary students. The EPK methodology uses a well-developed, synchronous computer-supported, collaborative learning system to facilitate students' learning in Chinese. We…

Science Created by You (SCY) is a project on learning in science and technology domains. SCY uses a pedagogical approach that centres around products, called "emerging learning objects" (ELOs) that are created by students. Students work individually and collaboratively in SCY-Lab (the general SCY learning environment) on "missions" that are guided…

Developing Simulations in Multi-User Virtual Environments to Enhance Healthcare Education
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Direct linkDirect link
Rogers, Luke – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2011
Computer-based clinical simulations are a powerful teaching and learning tool because of their ability to expand healthcare students' clinical experience by providing practice-based learning. Despite the benefits of traditional computer-based clinical simulations, there are significant issues that arise when incorporating them into a flexible,…
