Abstract

Thesis. This article provides an analysis of online social interactions in two online Temporary Learning Groups (TLG) and their correlates with both pre-admissions scores and academic achievements. Concept. The function of Social Networking Systems (SNS) use on academic achievements is most often indirectly assessed through surveying attitudes of students and teachers. Contrary to this approach, we directly assessed the content on a TLG and paired it with objective admission scores and academic achievements. Results and conclusion. The results reveal that the content of the discussions on the TLGs is practical, immediate, and focuses on the allocation of information required for academic achievements. The users of the TLGs are usually students with lower admission scores and academic achievements. They use these platforms as a compensating mechanism to improve their achievements. In addition, some of the TLG users serve as maximising agents of other students’ achievements. TLGs’ implications for teaching, class-attendance and level of schooling must be recognised by teachers. Originality. While researchers focus on the presence of SNSs in class and its hampering of schooling by multitasking the effect of TLG activity must also be addressed.

高等教育中的在线临时学习群体——以色列案例研究中的互动、补偿和成就最大化
论文本文分析了两个在线临时学习小组(TLG)的在线社交互动及其与入学前成绩和学业成绩的相关性。概念社交网络系统(SNS)的使用对学业成绩的影响通常是通过调查学生和教师的态度来间接评估的。与这种方法相反,我们直接评估TLG上的内容,并将其与客观录取分数和学术成就配对。结果和结论。结果表明,关于TLG的讨论内容是实用的、即时的,并且侧重于学术成果所需信息的分配。TLG的用户通常是录取分数和学业成绩较低的学生。他们利用这些平台作为一种补偿机制来提高自己的成就。此外,一些TLG用户充当其他学生成就的最大化代理。TLG对教学、出勤率和教育水平的影响必须得到教师的认可。独创性虽然研究人员关注课堂上SNS的存在及其多任务处理对学校教育的阻碍,但TLG活动的影响也必须得到解决。
