Computer-Supported Academically Productive Discourse

Studies of computer-supported collaborative learning have begun to explore processes of online group cognition—such as small-group methods of problem solving—and how they can be mediated by various technological and interactional mechanisms to promote academically productive discourse. This chapter first presents (1) an analysis of co-presence as a foundational aspect of online interaction in an excerpt of chat discourse. Based on how the students in this excerpt actually interact, it develops (2) a notion of intersubjective shared understanding as necessary for the possibility of collaborative knowledge-building dialog. The chapter concludes with (3) a discussion of consequences for the design of computer support of academically productive online group cognition.
