[5. Education on the WEB]

5.2 The WWW as collaboration tool


Focus on:

Uses of asynchronous communication on the Web:

High need for synchronous CSCW extensions

New roles for "Teachers" and "fellow learners"

Teachers

With networked computers, teachers become rather:
"information organizers", "tutors", "facilitators"
.... instead of "information transmitters".

Fellow learners

The Network favors collaborative work,
which in turn favors learning
(see:
Dillenbourg & Schneider 95)

PS: Cooperative learning works well under certain conditions and there exist several mechanisms ( 10.3)
