i-Communities as Cooperative Learning Spaces: The case of the "Knowledge Forum" / Poce, A. - In: Open networked i-learning. Models and cases of Next Gen Learning / [a cura di] Elia G;Poce A. - 233 SPRING STREET, NEW YORK, NY 10013, UNITED STATES : Springer, 2010. - ISBN 9781441968531. - pp. 39-59 [10.1007/978-1-4419-6854-8_2]
abstract:
The model devised in the first chapter is here developed taking as main
“driving light” the concept of interactivity: one of the keywords that have been
highlighted as the ideas around which design, implement, deliver and monitor a
learning experience contextualized in the open learning incubator.
This chapter is centered, in fact, on the peculiarities of on line learning communities
and it deepens topics related to the rise and development of social networking
and the consequent creation of cooperative learning spaces. The aim is that of presenting
a clear picture of the nature, potentialities and effective strengths of online
learning communities that could represent the solution for the requirements our
changing society is demanding.
Moreover, according to the paradigm shift which characterizes the model of the
learning incubator, this chapter aims at discussing the pedagogical foundations of
on line learning communities, the new role of the involved actors, the change of
strategy, the different approach to contents and to the use of technology, the updated
conception of space and time characterizing the learning dynamics.
