Ouyang, Fan; Ling, Tengjiao; Jiao, Pengcheng – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2022
Group cognition is a cognitive science concept that studies how groups think, learn, and work. Most research investigates group cognition as a qualitative-oriented phenomenon. From a quantitative perspective, this research proposes a measure equation of group cognition, conducts empirical research during online collaborative problem-solving, and…

Xu, Yaqian; Du, Junlei – Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2022
The network is a key concept which has been highly valued in connectivism. Research about the static characteristics of social networks in connectivist learning has been carried out in recent years, however, little knowledge exists regarding the principles of network evolution from a dynamic perspective. This article chose the first connectivist…

Ward, Phillip; Devrilmez, Erhan; Ayvazo, Shiri; Dervent, Fatih; He, Yaohui; Iserbyt, Peter; Ince, Levent; Kim, Insook; Ko, Bomna; Li, Weidong; Tsuda, Emi – Quest, 2021
Transnational research involves research in one country that benefits that country, and where the findings are compared to the extant studies in the larger field. It also involves the search for common effects and situational influences (i.e., country and culture-specific) toward a particular research topic. In this study we examine the…

Gaggioli, Andrea; Mazzoni, Elvis; Benvenuti, Martina; Galimberti, Carlo; Bova, Antonio; Brivio, Eleonora; Cipresso, Pietro; Riva, Giuseppe; Chirico, Alice – Creativity Research Journal, 2020
The recent model of Networked flow (NF) mapped out factors underlying optimal creative collaboration in blended spaces (physical and digital). NF conceives creativity as an evolving network bridging material and symbolic resources of the creative collaboration process at both inter and the intra-group levels. First, this model posits that optimal…

Moon, Rennie J.; Shin, Gi-Wook – Comparative Education, 2019
This paper examines how social isolation in a non-Anglophone context where English is not the main language of instruction for local students but is for international students, has unintended consequences for social capital formation among the latter. What factors influence international student network formation in such places where linguistic…

Mamas, Christoforos – Journal of Further and Higher Education, 2018
This study primarily applied social network analysis (SNA) to explore the relationship between friendships, peer social interactions and group work dynamics within a higher education undergraduate programme in England. A critical case study design was adopted so as to allow for an in-depth exploration of the students' voice. In doing so, the views…

Rienties, Bart; Tempelaar, Dirk – Journal of the Learning Sciences, 2018
Most research related to learning in groups focuses on the unit of the group and/or group members. However, students may benefit from crossing the boundaries of their own group, as students in different groups may provide access to new, nonredundant knowledge and opportunities for learning. Whether boundary crossing between groups is beneficial…

Kim, Dongryeul – Journal of Technology and Science Education, 2018
In order to find out the influence of Korean Middle School Students' relationship by science class applying STAD cooperative learning, this study conducted a social network analysis and sought to analyze the communication networks within the group and identified the change process of the type. The subject of this study was 30 students of the…

Joksimovic, Srecko; Jovanovic, Jelena; Kovanovic, Vitomir; Gasevic, Dragan; Milikic, Nikola; Zouaq, Amal; van Staalduinen, Jan Paul – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2020
Learning in computer-mediated setting represents a complex, multidimensional process. This complexity calls for a comprehensive analytical approach that would allow for understanding of various dimensions of learner generated discourse and the structure of the underlying social interactions. Current research, however, primarily focuses on manual…

Kim, Youngshin; Kim, Myunghee; Ha, Minsu; Lim, Soo-Min – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2017
Science inquiry activities carried out in a small group are learner-centered activities operating under the premise of collaborative interaction between members through various types of communication and consultation in the process of resolving issues. The changes in the types of interactions in the three exploratory activities targeting…

Rienties, Bart; Héliot, YingFei – Studies in Higher Education, 2018
While interdisciplinary courses are regarded as a promising method for students to learn and apply knowledge from other disciplines, there is limited empirical evidence available whether interdisciplinary courses can effectively "create" interdisciplinary students. In this innovative quasi-experimental study amongst 377 Master's…

Zhang, Jingjing; Skryabin, Maxim; Song, Xiongwei – Distance Education, 2016
This study attempts to make inferences about the mechanisms that drive network change over time. It adopts simulation investigation for empirical network analysis to examine the patterns and evolution of relationships formed in the context of a massive open online course (MOOC) discussion forum. Four network effects--"homophily,"…

Keuning, Trynke – Teachers College Record, 2016
Context: Collaboration within school teams is considered to be important to build the capacity school teams need to work in a data-based way. In a school characterized by a strong collaborative culture, teachers may have more access to the knowledge and skills for analyzing data, teachers have more opportunity to discuss the performance goals to…

Taha, Nashrawan; Cox, Andrew – Studies in Higher Education, 2016
The great influx of international students into UK universities has led to internationalisation becoming an important issue. Previous studies have focused on the integration of home and international students, illustrating a lack of intercultural interaction. Yet there has been a lack of research investigating international students' networks and…

Waslander, Sietske; Hooge, Edith; Drewes, Tineke – European Journal of Education, 2016
Based on detailed empirical analyses, we paint a layered picture of emerging steering dynamics. Inspired by Foucault, we put the focus on roles stakeholders define both for themselves and others, how they give sense to policy, how they work together in policy elaboration and implementation, and the subtle and sometimes deceitful function of soft…
