In this article, Cindy and I explore our creative megapuppetry activism. As avocational advocates of social change in the state of Tennessee, we describe our lived experiences of educating adults about social issues in public spaces through protests, rallies, and parades. We use this description as a phenomenological autoethnography, investigating…

To paraphrase John Tukey, the beauty of working with data is that you get to "play in everyone's backyard." A corollary to this statement is that working with data necessitates collaboration. Although students often learn technical workflows to wrangle and analyze data, these workflows may break down or require adjustment to accommodate…

This mixed-method research sought to identify the factors, challenges and strategies that enable and strengthen collaborative research practice in academia. Participants of the study are purposively chosen, self-selected faculty and students from an external campus and a unit in the main campus of a state university in Bulacan, Philippines, who…

This book presents the creative, arts-based and educative thinking resulting from a "21 day autoethnography challenge" set of self-guided prompts arising from the large-scale collaborative, creative, and global project to explore "Massive and Microscopic Sensemaking during COVID-19 Times." It employs a guiding methodological…

Interactive writing is a powerful instructional strategy in which the teacher and children "share the pen" to construct a collaboratively composed text. Traditionally, articles have been written detailing how the procedure can be implemented in grades kindergarten through two. We contend that interactive writing can also be an effective…

This investigation sought to discern the impacts of different electronic note-taking strategies--collaborative, individual, and a hybrid of both--on the academic writing skills of Chinese EFL graduate students. The study engaged 185 participants, systematically assigned to one of four groups: those practicing collaborative electronic note-taking,…

This study explores how a team of university and youth co-researchers collaboratively inquired into, and participated in, the process of writing for educational change. We refer to the collective literate processes through which researchers worked to center community priorities in academic writing as community-centered composing. We document how…

This study investigates the integration of artificial intelligence into the Think-Pair-Share (TPS) methodology through a learning analytics lens. Using a mixed-methods quasi-experimental design (N=140), we examined how an AI-enhanced collaborative platform influences creative thinking among computer science undergraduates. The experimental group…

Technology-mediated collaborative writing (CW) is a popular pedagogical approach in second language (L2) education. Research shows the potential benefits of co-authoring in pairs using digital devices in various areas. Given its reliance on various modes of communication, further research on the layers of modality could provide further insights…

An increasing number of studies have explored the effects of collaborative writing on written outcomes; however, few studies have examined the influence of collaborative processing of feedback. This study addresses this gap by focusing on learner engagement. While collaborative writing involves co-authoring a text, which requires negotiation and…

Online Collaborative Writing (OCW) is a prevalent practice among undergraduate students, yet challenges arising from a lack of group awareness (GA) often hinder effective collaboration. To address such challenges, this study included three phases: (1) A preliminary study (n=9) aimed to identify challenges that undergraduate students face while…

Exploring literacy practices of home cooks, this article analyzes how cookbooks are remixed by users (with writings, clippings and other ephemera added to the text throughout its use). The practice of remixing the text with further editing by its user/audience illustrates the multilayered literacies at work in establishing authorship within the…

Seven children ages five through nine engaged with two graduate student teachers after school in a university-based literacy lab. Based on a home interest survey, the essential question, "What is movement?" was explored. The children generated further questions, read a variety of texts, and wrote about their experiences. The teachers…

Knowledge building occurs when students work together and participate in idea-centred discussions where they share information and create knowledge collectively. This research explores whether knowledge building in knowledge forums using English as the "lingua franca" can facilitate in foreign language learning. An analysis was done on…

The 'new normal' setup of education posed challenges on courses requiring learners' collaboration. Despite the proven advantages of collaborative writing, several challenges still confront the learners which may affect the quality of their output. Collaboration per se is already a challenge for learners in face-to-face classes, more so in online…
