Dual Interaction Spaces:

This exploration delves into the processes of meaning making within Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL) environments, particularly focusing on Virtual Math Teams (VMT). Despite being central to CSCL literature, meaning making is rarely analyzed directly. We examine how participants interpret their experiences in VMT sessions and identify the conditions necessary for effective online collaboration. By comparing meaning construction to face-to-face interactions, we uncover essential elements such as lexical definitions, environmental resources, and contextual relevancies that facilitate collaborative understanding in synchronous settings.

Presentation Transcript

  1. Dual Interaction Spaces: Martin M. Gerry Stahl

  2. Meaning Making • A central theme in CSCL literature • A key process in collaborative learning • Rarely investigated directly • How do people make sense of what is taking place in an environment like the Virtual Math Teams sessions? • How can researchers analyze meaning making in (synchronous) CSCL contexts? • What are the conditions & preconditions necessary to support online meaning making? (see paper for another story)

  3. How is meaning made? Co-construction &/or reference to: • Lexical definitions • Environmental resources • Intentional continuities • Topical responses • Contextual relevancies • Indexical frames

  4. Face-to-face classroom • familiar people and artifacts • parallel collaboration

  5. How is meaning made F2F? Co-construction &/or reference to: • Lexical definitions — speech • Environmental resources — physical artifacts • Intentional continuities — human bodies • Topical responses — turn taking • Contextual relevancies — visually & physically shared local history • Indexical frames — gesture, glance
