چکیده

Our research focused on the analysis of face-to-face (FTF) social interaction of groups working on maths problems using the GCC framework in traditional classroom setting. The GCC framework requires students to analyze maths problems with "solutions" that contained conceptual or oversight errors, critique these solutions with mathematical arguments, and finally fix the "solutions" collaboratively. In this study, the GCC framework is extended to the VMT chat medium which consists of a shared whiteboard, chat message box and tools for students to construct mathematical representations. The analyses of these sessions were based on the Collaboration Interaction Model (CIM), a model designed to study the knowledge construction process of complex chat transcripts. This paper will discuss how participants mediate shared understanding of mathematical representations and form mathematical arguments to construct new knowledge in the chat medium, using the CIM as the key instrument of analysis.

Thread-based analysis of patterns of collaborative interaction in chat

In this work we present a thread-based approach for analyzing synchronous collaborative math problem solving activities. Thread information is shown to be an important resource for analyzing collaborative activities, especially for conducting sequential analysis of interaction among participants of a small group. We propose a computational model based on thread information which allows us to id...

Boundary Objects: Their Role in Articulating the Task at Hand and Making Information Relevant to It

Complex collaborative design activities cannot be solved by individuals or by single groups. Communities of interest (defined by their collective concern with the resolution of a problem) bring together different communities of practice which represent groups of practitioners from different domains. Reaching common understanding between these communities is a major challenge for information tec...
