Abstract Background Deep discussions play an important role in students' online learning. However, researchers have largely focused on engaging students deep asynchronous forums. Few studies investigated how to promote discussion via mobile instant messaging (MIM). Objectives In this study, we applied learning analytical tools (i.e., KBdeX and word clouds) enhance shared epistemic agency thereby support their MIM. Methods Forty Chinese college participated study reflected MIM engagement by participating the analytics (LA)‐augmented meta‐discourse sessions. The used multiple data analysis methods, including content analysis, statistical network lag sequential analysis. Results We found that LA engaged agency‐related discourse, such as creating understanding, knowledge objects, projective regulative processes. particular, clouds more complete discourse trajectory which started from awareness of unknowns, then progressed setting plans sharing information, ultimately, understanding. Moreover, our indicated moves understanding led a high level discussion. Implications This contributes research extending ‘comparison paradigm’, focuses comparing (a)synchronous forums with MIM, ‘design mobilises design features using engage promoting agency.

Abstract Fostering students’ dialogic reflection in the classroom entails promoting diverse perspectives and collaborative aspects of reflective thinking. However, few studies have developed visualisation tools to create a environment that fosters reflection, especially for young learners. This study aimed investigate efficacy visualising discourse enhance reflection. Two information communication technology (ICT) teachers their students ( n = 53) from Hong Kong primary school participated 3-month study. After engaging visualisation-supported subject knowledge ICT improved, accompanied by an increase proportion words spoken during lessons. Interviews with two eight underscored positive impact discourse, which enabled embrace alternative problem-solving approaches actively engage both group work whole-class discussions. illuminates advantages employing as tool. Beyond mere revisiting, can view experiences multiple reconstruct knowledge. Furthermore, this approach fostered accountability contribution interactions, ultimately improving learning outcomes. These findings advocate development evidence-based, specifically designed learners optimise experiences.

Abstract Background The existing research on dialogue‐based learning and teaching predominantly highlights its capacity to yield productive educational outcomes, yet it often overlooks the pivotal factor of participation equity, which is fundamental ensuring efficacy dialogic learning. Objectives In this study, equity refers a condition in itself opportunities participate are fairly distributed among participants all equally listened respected. We designed technology‐enhanced participatory visual analytical approach promote equitable collaborative problem solving from four dimensions: (i.e., equal contributions participants), opportunity promoting engagement with others), responsiveness encouraging attentiveness others' input), respect cultivating respectful communication style). Methods intervention class fourth‐grade students ( n = 59) interacted tool reflect their learn peer talk moves address issues concerning dimensions, while comparison only received simple feedback respect. Results results indicated that rates group members were insufficient secure equity. was effective helping realize equity‐related issues. Intervention more regarding than students. Conclusions proposed multidimensional framework has potential deepen understanding interactions.

Multi-method approaches are an emerging trend in CSCL research as they allow to paint a more comprehensive picture of complex group learning processes than using single method.In this contribution, we combined measures from different data sources capture the quality collaborative engagement (QCGE) CSCL-groups: QCGE-self-assessments, QCGE-ratings verbal communication, and video recorded nonverbal behaviors.Using methods analysis, visualized, described, analyzed related each other.Here, present results suggesting that interrelated: For instance, behavior (like nodding head) is high communications.Results preliminary show disparities, too.Yet, conclude multi-method approach understanding QCGE.Feasibility suitability discussed conclusions for future drawn.

Visual Learning Analytics (VLA) uses analytics to monitor and assess educational data by combining visual automated analysis provide explanations. Such tools could aid teachers in primary secondary schools making pedagogical decisions, however, the evidence of their effectiveness benefits is still limited. With this scoping review, we a comprehensive overview related research on proposed VLA methods, as well identifying any gaps literature that assist describing new helpful directions field. This review searched all relevant articles five accessible databases — Scopus, Web Science, ERIC, ACM, IEEE Xplore using 40 keywords. These studies were mapped, categorized, summarized based objectives, collected data, intervention approaches employed, results obtained. The determined what affordances allowed, kind visualizations used inform students, and, more importantly, positive interventions. We conclude there are moderate-to-clear learning improvements within limit studies’ interventions support use tools. More systematic needed determine whether gains translated into long-term improvements.
