The article presents findings from a small descriptive-interpretive qualitative study investigating the lived experiences of students in an experimental cultural studies in education seminar. The seminar invited students to explore the multiplying crises of the 21st century as educational problems in a collaborative space of relationality and…

Previous studies have reported the importance of regulation in collaborative learning. To understand and support students' learning, researchers have identified that regulation in collaboration emerges as a series of contingent activities at individual and social levels, addressing various learning foci in cognitive, motivational, emotional, and…

A core challenge for any organization is to create highly functioning teams that creatively and effectively find solutions to complex challenges. The authors propose the foundation of creating such teams is for the team to develop a shared understanding of the requisite knowledge of everyone on the team and then recombine that knowledge to find…

Student teachers are invaluable educational assets, especially in digital transformation. The online collaborative reflection ability (OCRA) is crucial for their teaching careers and has always been challenging. There is a pressing need for new collaborative learning strategies to enhance student teachers' OCRA and improve the quality of future…

Cooperative board games promote engagement, teamwork, and strategic problem-solving, making them useful in educational contexts. This Systematic Literature Review employs the PRISMA methodology to identify cooperative board game mechanisms and design considerations along with their adaptation potential in serious contexts and the alignment with…

Grouping students according to their abilities and promoting deeper interaction and moderation are key issues in improving computational thinking in collaborative programming. However, the distribution characteristics and evolving pathways of computational thinking in different groups have not been deeply explored. During the course of a…

This paper introduces the concept of polyphonic relational epistemology, an extension of relational epistemology that emphasizes knowledge as a dialogic and multivocal process. Drawing on Mikhail Bakhtin's theory of polyphony, the paper argues that the act of knowing emerges from the interaction of multiple, irreducible voices. This approach…

University students are increasingly using generative artificial intelligence (AI) tools in creative tasks. Drawing from the literature on AI-human interaction and team creativity, the present study developed a moderated mediating model regarding the effects of generative AI on team creativity. To validate the developed model, a questionnaire…

The Learning Center at SUNY Cortland is redeveloping its tutoring session forms to reflect its philosophy of learning. The forms are modeled on the three phases of the tutoring session that encourage a reflective, collaborative learning process for both the students and the tutors. This Practice of Teaching and Learning shares five of the eight…

Professional practice in health and social care is embodied by the practitioners concerned, embedded in practice contexts and creative in nature. It is therefore complex to investigate, understand and develop. Current health and social care contexts can present practitioners with increasingly constraining circumstances and spaces that can feel…

Collaborative learning is a group learning paradigm in which individuals or students work together to solve problems or complete tasks, exemplifying the essence of collective educational efforts. There are a lot of collaborative learning methods available; however, finding one that is suitable for the complex nature of mathematical problem-solving…

This article provides responses to the following questions: what are the major properties of 'remote presence'? What is meant by social presence in e-learning? What are the specific characteristics of the theoretical model of social presence in e-learning (MSP-elearning)? The responses offered are the result of work on characterisation of 'remote…

Background: In agile software engineering team projects, effective collaboration and communication between members are essential for promoting agility and lean software development. Agile methodologies, which emphasize iterative development, collaboration and adaptability, are well suited to dynamic educational environments. However, agile teams…

In a spirit of collegial support, this paper argues that Beckett and Hager's theoretical justification and empirical exemplifications do not do full justice to the complexity of group or team learning. We firstly reaffirm our support for the theoretical argument Becket and Hager make, though expressing some reservations about Complexity Theory, to…

Collaboration skills are fundamental to effective collaborative learning, career success, and responsible citizenship. Collaborative learning analytics (CLA) systems hold significant potential in helping students develop these skills by automatically collecting group interaction data, analyzing skill levels, and providing actionable feedback so…
