儿童青少年协作促进的发展

旨在考察不同年龄的个体, 在不同回忆序列和学习材料上协作促进的发展情况。采用3(回忆序列:协作—个人—个人〔CII〕、个人—协作—个人〔ICI〕、个人—个人—个人〔III〕)× 5(年龄:9、11、14、17、20)× 2(材料:图片、文字)的被试间设计。结果发现:(1)各年龄个体在CII和ICI两种回忆序列上均出现了协作促进, 且两种序列条件下被试的最终个人回忆成绩无差异;(2)另外, 17岁个体的协作促进量显著高于9岁、11岁、14岁和20岁, 其他各年龄之间无差异;(3)图片和文字的协作促进量无差异。这说明小组协作回忆的顺序对协作促进没有太大影响, 17岁个体协作促进的效果最好。     

Whose Place is This Anyway? Reflecting upon Hospitality and Higher Education

In this essay I propose that using online tools to connect geographically‐separated classrooms for real‐time collaborative learning experiences may effectively develop intercultural competency in the religious studies classroom. I explore personal examples from several international and inter‐institutional collaborations with Jacques Derrida's reflections on hospitality to explain how using online tools in this way productively puts into question conventions about place, host, and guest. This engagement of students in collaboration with others beyond their classroom is effective because it takes the focus of learning past facts students might learn towards how they are communicating to learn.     

Translating the ICAP Theory of Cognitive Engagement Into Practice

ICAP is a theory of active learning that differentiates students’ engagement based on their behaviors. ICAP postulates that I nteractive engagement, demonstrated by co‐generative collaborative behaviors, is superior for learning to C onstructive engagement, indicated by generative behaviors. Both kinds of engagement exceed the benefits of A ctive or P assive engagement, marked by manipulative and attentive behaviors, respectively. This paper discusses a 5‐year project that attempted to translate ICAP into a theory of instruction using five successive measures: (a) teachers’ understanding of ICAP after completing an online module, (b) their success at designing lesson plans using different ICAP modes, (c) fidelity of teachers’ classroom implementation, (d) modes of students’ enacted behaviors, and (e) students’ learning outcomes. Although teachers had minimal success in designing Constructive and Interactive activities, students nevertheless learned significantly more in the context of Constructive than Active activities. We discuss reasons for teachers’ overall difficulty in designing and eliciting Interactive engagement.     

Changing counterproductive beliefs about attention,memory, and multitasking: Impacts of a brief,fully online module

Ubiquitous mobile technology is part of contemporary life, bringing with it the potential for distraction and reduction in performance associated with multitasking. The predisposition toward dysfunctional multitasking may be shaped in part by beliefs that individuals hold about memory and attention. The issue is particularly pressing for college students, given established links between distraction, multitasking, and learning. This project assessed the impact of an online learning module on beliefs about attention, memory, and learning in college students. It also contrasted these beliefs in a college and non-college community sample. Significant reductions in counterproductive beliefs were associated with completing the module; counterproductive beliefs were also no more prevalent in the college vs. the non-college sample. Our findings suggest that brief online modules are a practical way to address counterproductive beliefs related to multitasking with technology, and add to the literature on metacognition, attention, and multitasking in college and non-college populations.     

Thirty years of research on online learning

This paper presents a personal account of developments in research on online learning over the past 30 years. Research on how to design online instruction represents an example of applying the science of learning to education. It contributes to the science of learning (as exemplified by developments in cognitive load theory, the cognitive theory of multimedia learning, and incorporating metacognitive, motivational, and affective aspects of learning), the science of instruction (as exemplified by the continuing development of research‐based principles of instructional design), and the science of assessment (as exemplified by supplementing self‐report surveys and retention tests with multilevel transfer tests, log file data during learning, and cognitive neuroscience measures of cognitive processing during learning). Some recurring themes are that learning is caused by instructional methods rather than instructional media, so research should focus on features that are uniquely afforded by digital learning environments; instructional practice should be grounded in rigorous and systematic research, including value‐added experiments aimed at pinpointing the active ingredients in online instruction; research in online learning should identify boundary conditions under which instructional techniques are most effective; and research in online learning should test and contribute to learning theory.     

生成性绘图与合作对高中生科学知识学习的影响

生成性绘图是学习心理学中一种有效的学习策略,能够促进学习者对科学文本知识的表征和深层理解。目前关于学习者生成性绘图的研究主要集中在个体学习领域,很少有研究探讨合作学习中生成性绘图的作用。本研究将合作学习与学习者生成性绘图相结合,探讨生成性绘图和合作对高中生科学知识学习的影响。实验1采用单因素(绘图、阅读)被试间设计来验证生成性绘图对学习效果以及认知负荷等主观体验的影响;实验2采用2(合作、个体)×2(绘图、阅读)被试间设计来探讨合作与生成性绘图对学习效果和学习者主观体验的影响。研究表明,生成性绘图和合作都可以有效促进高中生科学知识的学习效果;生成性绘图能够降低学习者的内在认知负荷;合作能够降低学习者的内在和外在认知负荷,提高学习者的相关认知负荷和学习兴趣。     

网络视频课程中师生交互与大学生网络学习绩效的关系:学习自我效能感与学习动机的序列中介作用

本研究基于建构主义学习理论,采用问卷调查法以湖北省武汉市两所大学四个年级544名参与网络课堂的大学生为被试,探讨网络师生交互与网络学习绩效之间的关系,以及网络学习自我效能感和网络学习动机在其中的序列中介作用。结果发现：（1）网络师生交互、网络学习自我效能感、网络学习动机与网络学习绩效两两之间均显著正相关;（2）网络师生交互对网络学习绩效的直接效应和间接效应均显著。间接效应包含了两条路径：通过网络学习自我效能感的部分中介作用和通过网络学习自我效能感-网络学习动机的序列中介作用。这一结论有助于理解网络师生交互对网络学习绩效的作用机制,为未来网络教育的开展提供建议。

Imaging early consolidation of perceptual learning with face stimuli during rest

Studies investigating visual perceptual learning (VPL) have traditionally used simple visual tasks and focused on assessing the active (online) processes of learning and memory: encoding and retrieval. The assessment of complex stimuli and the passive (offline) process of consolidation is, however, necessary for a full understanding of the development of VPL and has received little direct analysis. In the current study, 30 young adults completed a VPL task with face stimuli while undergoing an fMRI scan. Activity was assessed within offline rest breaks both during and after the learning task. Changes in baseline activity within functionally-relevant regions were identified during these rest periods. Furthermore, differences in consolidation-related resting activity were evident between individuals who performed well on the active task, and those who performed less well. These findings provide preliminary evidence that activity during offline rest breaks, which immediately follow the active task, is associated with consolidation and learning, in VPL.     

Appropriation d'une plate-forme de coopération par des enfants en cadre scolaire

The idea of using computers in primary school to enhance or even transform learning is more and more frequent. Even if these devices are often used in an individual way, they also offer a collaborative praxis. This is possible by cooperation platforms that link the learners through informatical network. Those platforms are developed by researchers of computing in the field of CSCW (Computer-Supported Collaborative Work). It is not only a technical problem to develop those software. On the user's side (children and teachers) there is some kind of toughness for the appropriation of the technical possibilities of these tools of communication. In order to tackle these questions, it is required to work in an interdisciplinary framework. Indeed, it is possible to study the activity of the learners in interaction, mediated by digital tools, with an approach of the research in psychology (here social psychology of cognitive processes in collaborative settings). Implementing methods and categories permit the analyse of the problems of the actors to master the platform functioning. In this paper, we will describe how these analyses form the framework of the articulation between the two fields of research and how they lead to the design and the development of successive prototypes of the platform.     

Visuospatial memory and phonological loop in learning from multimedia

The dual‐task paradigm was used to show how visuospatial working memory and the phonological loop are involved in processing scientific texts and illustrations presented via computer. In experiment 1, two presentation formats were compared: text‐only and text‐with‐illustrations. With a concurrent tapping task, the beneficial effect of illustrations disappeared, while a concurrent articulatory task impaired performance similarly in both presentation formats. An analysis of individual differences revealed that this pattern of results was present in high, but not low spatial span subjects. These results support the selective involvement of visuospatial working memory in processing illustrated texts. In Experiment 2, the text‐only presentation format was compared to an illustrations‐only format. The concurrent articulatory task selectively impaired text‐only processing, compared with processing illustrations‐only. In addition, this pattern of results was found for high, but not low digit span subjects. These results suggest that individual differences define the extent to which the two subsystems of working memory are involved in learning from multimedia. These two subsystems would be mainly involved in the maintenance of a visual trace of illustrations and of a verbatim representation of linguistic information respectively, these representations being the basis for higher‐level comprehension processes.

My profile: The ethics of virtual ethnography

This paper advances some specific recommendations for an approach to studying the spaces of online culture that draw on aspects of cultural (anthropological) ethnography. It aims to offer some provocations for researchers setting out to engage sympathetically with online culture, to account for the particular kinds of intimacy these spaces enable. Each online scene or space, whether declared to be a community or not, is organised both by its specific form and by an order of appropriate identity practices associated with that form. At the same time, across these different cultures, modes of belonging mediate these practices which are recognisable across many online communities and formats. While the forms of intimacy developed online are far from consistent, this paper considers how best to engage with the consistencies and variations of online intimacy.     

Collaborative learning in engineering ethics

This paper discusses collaborative learning and its use in an elective course on ethics in engineering. Collaborative learning is a form of active learning in which students learn with and from one another in small groups. The benefits of collaborative learning include improved student performance and enthusiasm for learning, development of communication skills, and greater student appreciation of the importance of judgment and collaboration in solving real-world problems such as those encountered in engineering ethics. Collaborative learning strategies employed in the course include informal small group discussions/problem solving, role-playing exercises, and cooperative student group projects, including peer grading. Student response to these techniques has been highly favorable. Realizing the benefits of collaborative learning is a challenge to both teachers, who must give up some control in the classroom, and students, who must be willing to take greater responsibility for their learning. An earlier version of this paper was presented by the author at a mini-conference, Practicing and Teaching Ethics in Engineering and Computing, held during the Sixth Annual Meeting of the Association for Practical and Professional Ethics, Washington, D.C., March 8–9, 1997 The author teaches courses in Science, Technology and Society and is Director of the Benjamin Franklin Scholars Program, a dual-degree program in engineering and humanities/social sciences.

Writing to Learn the Reformation: Or,Who Was Ulrich Zwingli And Why Should I Care?

This article describes the use of “Writing to Learn” assignments in a course on the Theology of the Protestant and Catholic Reformations. These short, informal assignments promote active learning by focusing on writing as a process for critical thinking and as a way to learn the content of the course. They help students creatively engage with the texts, thoughtfully reflect on them, and critically assess their significance. This article describes the theory behind these assignments, provides examples of different types of assignments as well as excerpts from student papers, and concludes with an evaluation of their effectiveness. The students in the course found the assignments helpful in learning the content of the course and their attitude toward writing in this course significantly improved.     

Creating a dialogic space for prospective teacher critical reflection and transformative learning

This research highlights the pedagogical significance of dialogic spaces in supporting critical reflection and transformative learning among prospective teachers in the United States. It finds that, with elucidation of the multiple voices and texts from prospective teachers’ field experience, teacher educators can stimulate deep reflection to springboard transformative learning. It also finds that ePortfolios have strong potential to support a dialogic approach to reflection. However, it is also clear that, absent systematic observation and careful follow-up dialogue, the potential to move from reflection to transformative learning is limited. The findings will help teacher educators rethink the design and practice of supervision with ePortfolios, reinforcing that critical dialogue between the supervisor and the prospective teachers is key to supporting prospective teachers’ critical reflection and transformative learning, and to improving their teaching practice.
