Shuoqiu Yang; Xu Du; Hengtao Tang; Jui-Long Hung; Yeye Tang – Education and Information Technologies, 2024
Collaborative Problem Solving (CPS) has received increasing attention for its role in promoting learners' cognitive and social development in STEM education. However, little is known about how learners interact dynamically within a group at different time granularities. This gap mainly resulted from overlooking the time dimension of interactions,…

Damasceno, Cristiane S. – Journal of Information Technology Education: Innovations in Practice, 2023
Aim/Purpose: The emergence of massive open online courses (MOOCs) has fostered the creation of co-located learning communities; however, there is limited research on the types of interactions unfolding in these spaces. Background: This study explores Peer 2 Peer University's Learning Circles, a project that allows individuals to take MOOCs…

Ma, Xiulin; Liu, Jingjing; Liang, Jing; Fan, Chenyu – Interactive Learning Environments, 2023
The online learning practice has already demonstrated that the quality of interaction and motivation in collaborative learning is not as good as expected, due to the loneliness and burnout feeling spawned by inadequate learning status information about others. This study proposed a model on group awareness to feedback information of group learning…

Tawfik, Andrew A.; Koehler, Adrie A.; Gish-Lieberman, Jaclyn J.; Gatewood, Jessica – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2021
To date, little is known regarding how to best design instruction/guidance prompts that support learners' participation in collaborative argumentation (CA). To address this gap, this study compared the influence of two instruction/guidance prompts prior to learners' CA: problem representation (executive summary of the problem) and full…

Danilov, Igor Val; Mihailova, Sandra – Online Submission, 2020
This study presents, for the first time, (a) the analysis of the modern literature on the reciprocal impact of emotional arousal and interactional synchrony that creates the synergy of this tandem increasing group productivity; (b) the empirical results of 10 online experiments with 41 dyads. These online experiments in different languages found a…

Dubosson, Magali; Emad, Sabine – Universal Journal of Educational Research, 2015
One of the fastest growing approaches to teaching and learning in the new digital paradigm is the use of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs). They are categorised either as cMOOCs following a connectivist approach, or as xMOOCs based on behaviourist principles. However, in xMOOC environments, forums may play a real connectivist role if they are…
