The wiki, wherein community-spirited players meticulously document their gaming experiences for the benefit of others, from simple guides to complex theories and strategies, has become the de facto online reference medium for video game players. This study sought to examine how players learn from one another about the systems that underpin their favourite games and how they engaged with social media – wikis, in particular – to facilitate this collaborative learning. It is argued that in collating, synthesising and disseminating the often complex behaviours observed in a modern video game, the wiki author is displaying academic proficiency in a non-academic field. Drawing on a series of interviews with gaming wiki contributors and users, the practices of those engaged in using gaming wikis are discussed, together with an account of the research methods used. In undertaking such research, a number of challenges and concerns were encountered: these, too, are described.
在wiki上,有社区精神的玩家精心记录他们的游戏体验,从简单的指南到复杂的理论和策略,已经成为电子游戏玩家事实上的在线参考媒介。这项研究旨在研究玩家如何相互学习支持他们最喜欢的游戏的系统,以及他们如何与社交媒体(特别是维基百科)互动,以促进这种协作学习。有人认为,在整理、综合和传播现代电子游戏中观察到的复杂行为时,维基作者在非学术领域展示了学术水平。通过对游戏wiki贡献者和用户的一系列采访,本文讨论了使用游戏wiki的人的行为,以及所使用的研究方法。在进行这样的研究时,遇到了一些挑战和问题:这些也被描述。

J. Carpenter
Like other social media, the microblogging service Twitter appears to offer affordances for collaborative learning. This study investigated the required use of Twitter as part of a face-to-face, undergraduate teacher education class. Data included student and instructor Twitter activities, an end-of-semester survey of students’ perspectives on their use of Twitter, and a focus group. Participants noted several benefits to Twitter use in the course, including enabling communication and interaction within the class and with the professional education community. Twitter facilitated connectedness and resource sharing that was collaborative in nature, and functioned as one of several tools students utilised for collaboration. Recommendations are given regarding the use of microblogging in education and future research.
与其他社交媒体一样,微博服务Twitter似乎为协作学习提供了支持。本研究调查了Twitter作为面对面的本科教师教育课程的一部分的必要使用。数据包括学生和教师的推特活动,学期末学生对他们使用推特的看法的调查,以及一个焦点小组。与会者指出了在课程中使用Twitter的几个好处,包括使课堂内以及与专业教育界的交流和互动成为可能。Twitter促进了联系和资源共享,本质上是协作的,是学生们用于协作的几种工具之一。对微博在教育中的应用和未来的研究提出了建议。

When facilitating instruction in distance learning environments, educators are presented with challenges in student motivation and development of community. We used a mixed-method approach to analyse the interaction patterns and quality of discussion among distance learning college students who used two different course tools to complete assignments. Six patterns of discussion emerged from the posts: agreement, disagreement, countering, belief, statement, and re-state. We used a five-point scale to assess the quality of students’ posts. The student posts from VoiceThread™ (VT) assignments had higher quality scores and higher frequency of countering and belief statements. Whereas, the student posts from discussion board (DB) assignments had lower quality scores and a higher frequency of re-statement and agree statements. Student feedback regarding the use of the VT tool was positive. Additional analysis of using the VT tool with different types of assignments and in other online courses is necessary.
在促进远程教育环境下的教学时,教育者面临着学生动机和社区发展的挑战。我们使用混合方法来分析使用两种不同课程工具完成作业的远程学习大学生之间的互动模式和讨论质量。帖子中出现了六种讨论模式:同意、不同意、反驳、相信、陈述和重新陈述。我们使用五分制来评估学生帖子的质量。来自VoiceThread™(VT)作业的学生帖子具有更高的质量分数和更高的反驳和信念陈述频率。然而,来自讨论板(DB)作业的学生帖子的质量分数较低,重复陈述和同意陈述的频率较高。学生对虚拟教学工具的使用反馈是积极的。在不同类型的作业和其他在线课程中使用VT工具的额外分析是必要的。

This article addresses the common concerns faculty face in the classroom – students are addicted to technology and social media. Rather than banning social media from the classroom, instructors can implement its use as an active learning tool to increase engagement related to the course content in learning communities of peers, experts and organisations. This article provides an example of how to use social media in a sustainability marketing university course offering and explores how social media impacts attitudes, behaviours, and knowledge related to course content. Sustainability knowledge and behaviours significantly increased (p < 0.000; p = 0.003) after social media was implemented in the course offering. In addition, students attitudes toward practicing sustainability, reducing consumption, and being ecofriendly significantly increased (p = 0.013; p < 0.000; p = 0.002) based on pre and post class measures.
这篇文章解决了教师在课堂上面临的普遍问题——学生沉迷于科技和社交媒体。教师可以将社交媒体作为一种积极的学习工具来使用,而不是禁止社交媒体进入课堂,以提高同龄人、专家和组织的学习社区对课程内容的参与度。本文提供了一个如何在可持续营销大学课程中使用社交媒体的例子,并探讨了社交媒体如何影响与课程内容相关的态度、行为和知识。可持续发展知识和行为显著增加(p < 0.000;P = 0.003)。此外,学生对实践可持续发展、减少消费和生态友好的态度显著增加(p = 0.013;P < 0.000;P = 0.002)。

The community platform Young English Language Learners and Teen English Language Learners (YELL/TELL) was developed to respond to the needs of collaboration and sharing among trainee teachers, school teachers, teacher trainers and researchers in the field of language learning for English as second language (L2) and English as foreign language (EFL). The social community YELL/TELL, supported by the LearnWeb2.0 platform, has the aim to encourage professional collaboration among trainees, teachers of different schools and teacher educators in pre-service and in-service training. Lifelong learning is promoted on the basis of sharing resources, commenting and reflecting on them in the spirit of open educational practices and free resources, offering support, ideas, and competences for teaching English as L2. Within the framework of reflective socio-constructivism and multiliteracies, this paper discusses the YELL case study as a peer-training and open professional community.

Learner interaction is a crucial prerequisite for successful learning with Web 2.0. Active participation and learner-centred approaches represent a paradigm shift (from instructional learning to explorative learning), allowing for social and group dynamics that affect learner satisfaction. In the present paper, we compare the content of interaction between learners for two runs of the same course (in which learners collaborated via Web 2.0 tools) that were evaluated differently in terms of learner satisfaction. Textual content generated within the courses was subjected to discourse analysis. Analysis categories were tone and topic of the interaction, use of emoticons and different forms of social feedback. In the more satisfying course, the interaction was more positive, more focused on off-task interaction and there was more social feedback between learners, suggesting these aspects might be important predictors for learner satisfaction. Implications for teachers of Web 2.0 courses as well as for future research are discussed.
学习者交互是使用Web 2.0成功学习的关键先决条件。积极参与和以学习者为中心的方法代表了一种范式转变(从指导性学习到探索性学习),允许影响学习者满意度的社会和群体动态。在本文中,我们比较了同一课程(学习者通过Web 2.0工具合作)的两次运行中学习者之间的互动内容,这些课程在学习者满意度方面进行了不同的评估。课程中产生的文本内容进行了语篇分析。分析类别为互动的语气和话题、表情符号的使用和不同形式的社会反馈。在更满意的课程中,学习者之间的互动更积极,更注重任务外互动,学习者之间的社会反馈更多,这表明这些方面可能是学习者满意度的重要预测因素。讨论了对web2.0课程教师的启示以及对未来研究的启示。

Facebook is one of the social media technologies with applications in many domains, including education. This study describes the students’ engagement with Facebook as an assisted learning tool in problem-based learning (PBL) cohort in Bahrain. Additionally, we analyse the reception of the students towards Facebook as a learning aid tool. A range of mixed methods data collection techniques and triangulation was performed to reveal the complexity of the topic under investigation. The data collection was through (pre and post) questionnaires and an interview. The empirical data showed that the use of Facebook as a learning tool had a positive impact on students. The study provides experimental evidence that social networks and more specifically Facebook can be used as an educational tool in PBL context to help engage students in the use of social media.

Information architecture for social media: a case study on building an event backchannel with Twitter 社交媒体的信息架构:用Twitter构建事件反向通道的案例研究
Pub Date : 2014-03-10 DOI: 10.1504/IJSMILE.2014.059690
R. Moore
This paper presents a case study on creating a backchannel through Twitter for the live event, featuring the Secretary of the US Navy, hosted by the School of Government. The project, which ultimately was successful in creating social media buzz for the lecture, was a new approach for the School of Government in how it markets its events. The study discusses the tools and processes used in the backchannel’s creation and development. This paper was written because the author discovered a gap in existing literature on creating backchannels. It outlines how the adaptation of best practices from the general population’s use of Twitter in creating a backchannel for an educational event. While this study focuses specifically on the promotion of a live event, the concepts and principles discussed here also are applicable to instructors interested in providing their students with an environment for differentiated learning and informal communication.
本文介绍了一个通过Twitter为现场活动创建反向通道的案例研究,该活动由政府学院主办,以美国海军部长为特色。这个项目最终成功地为讲座在社交媒体上引起了轰动,是政府学院营销活动的一种新方法。该研究讨论了在反向通道的创建和发展中使用的工具和过程。这篇文章的写作是因为作者发现了现有文献中关于创建反向通道的空白。它概述了如何从一般人群使用Twitter创建教育事件的反向通道中适应最佳实践。虽然本研究的重点是现场活动的推广,但这里讨论的概念和原则也适用于有兴趣为学生提供差异化学习和非正式交流环境的教师。

A framework for analysing the social affordance of Web 2.0 tools 用于分析Web 2.0工具的社会可用性的框架
Pub Date : 2014-03-10 DOI: 10.1504/IJSMILE.2014.059695
Hongtao Sun, Li Chen
Web 2.0 tools with social network features provide new possibilities for distance education. However, it is still challenging to use them in educational practice. The lack of a comprehensive understanding of Web 2.0 tools might be one of the important reasons for this challenge. This paper suggests a systemic framework for analysing the social affordance of Web 2.0 tools, which is important to online learning. The proposed framework is based on four fields of literature, including the current affordance research, the features of Web 2.0 tools, the needs of distance education and pedagogy theory. It includes four dimensions, social connection, information aggregation, reflection and expression, and dialogue and collaboration. In each dimension, indicators and analysis method are also proposed. A case study is presented to show the process of analysis. In this case study, interaction in a post-graduate course supported by a micro-blog and a forum are analysed with an integrated analysis methodology including content analysis, social network analysis and online behaviour analysis. The affordance of micro-blogs was discussed based on this proposed framework.
具有社交网络功能的Web 2.0工具为远程教育提供了新的可能性。然而,如何将其运用到教学实践中,仍具有一定的挑战性。缺乏对Web 2.0工具的全面理解可能是造成这一挑战的重要原因之一。本文提出了一个系统的框架来分析Web 2.0工具的社会提供性,这对在线学习很重要。该框架基于四个领域的文献,包括当前的研究现状、Web 2.0工具的特点、远程教育的需求和教育学理论。它包括社会联系、信息聚合、反思与表达、对话与协作四个维度。在每个维度上提出了指标和分析方法。最后以一个案例来说明分析的过程。在本案例研究中,通过综合分析方法,包括内容分析、社会网络分析和在线行为分析,分析了微博和论坛支持的研究生课程中的互动。在此基础上对微博的可提供性进行了讨论。

Engaging middle school youth in STEM curricula resulting in desired conceptual changes is challenging. Furthermore, social media are identified as platforms where youth naturally congregate for sustained interaction. Studio STEM was designed as an after school programme to engage learners (ages 11–15) in design-based science inquiry within a studio environment, enhanced by social media and digital tools. In the highlighted curriculum, Save the Penguins, youth performed scientific experiments and engineering practices to design an enclosure to protect penguin-shaped ice cubes from rising temperature. Researchers tracked attendee and facilitator interactions through the social networking site, Edmodo. Results assert that youth’s understanding of science concepts was enhanced through participation in Studio STEM, evidenced through their articulation of understanding through Edmodo. Articulation remained dependent upon the amount of prompting that facilitators used within the Edmodo site as well as the availability of time set aside for students to interact with Edmodo.
让中学生参与STEM课程,从而产生理想的观念变化是具有挑战性的。此外,社交媒体被认为是年轻人自然聚集在一起进行持续互动的平台。Studio STEM是一个课后项目,旨在通过社交媒体和数字工具,在工作室环境中吸引11-15岁的学习者参与基于设计的科学探究。在重点课程“拯救企鹅”中,学生们进行了科学实验和工程实践,设计了一个保护企鹅形状的冰块免受温度上升影响的围栏。研究人员通过社交网站Edmodo跟踪了参与者和促进者之间的互动。结果表明,通过参与STEM工作室,青少年对科学概念的理解得到了增强,这一点可以通过他们通过Edmodo表达的理解得到证明。清晰度仍然依赖于在Edmodo网站上使用的引导者的提示量,以及为学生留出与Edmodo互动的可用时间。
