Connecting levels and methods of analysis in networked learning communities

This paper describes the rationale behind a workshop on using data-intensive computational methods of analysis for empirical-analytical studies of collaborative and networked learning, with a particular focus on how learning takes place in the technically-mediated interplay between individual, small group and collective levels of agency. This workshop is primarily designed for researchers interested in empirical-analytical studies using data-intensive computational methods of analysis (including social-network analysis, log-file analysis, data mining, video analysis).
