Situated Cognition, Vygotskian Thought and Learning from the Communities of Practice Perspective: Implications for the Design of Web-Based E-Learning

Hung, David W L, Der-Thanq, Chen·2001·Educational Media International

Abstract

This paper describes the key notions of situated cognition, Vygotskian thought (zone of proximal development, the general law of cultural development and the mediational nature of signs and tools), and learning from the community of practice perspective. From these notions, we conceptualize principles on learning through which design considerations relevant to the web-based e-learning environments are drawn. These community-oriented web-based design principles can be summarized under four dimensions: situatedness, commonality, interdependency, and infrastructure. These e-learning design principles are illustrated with current web-based examples. In particular, the infrastructure dimension is of particular significance to webbased online environments. Rules and processes relevant to face-to-face communities may have to be radically transformed in the context of web-based e-learning communities. Situation de connaissance, pensée de Vygotsky et apprentissage des communications en perspective pratique : Implications par l'élaboration de l'apprentissage basé sur le Web. Dans cet article nous décrivons les notions d'une situation de connaissance Vygotskian pensait (zone de développement proches, les lois générales de développement culturel et la nature médiationelle des signes et des outils) que l'apprentissage à partir de la communauté était en pratique perspective. A partir de ces notions nous avons extrait les principes de construction relevant de l'environnement éducatif basés sur le web. Ces principes sont recommandés dans le contexte de réunir le fossé entre l'école et le lieu de travail. Nous illustrons ces principes avec un exemple utilisant le « Knowledge Forum » y compris les recommandations suggérés sur la facon dont la construction de la connaissance (knowledge) peut être poussée plus loin de facon à inclure les principes identifiés de la conception du e-learning. Kontextbezogene Wahrnehmung, Vygotskys Ansatz und Lernen durch Umgang mit Gemeinschaften: Folgerungen für die Gestaltung von web-basiertem E-Lernen. In diesem Beitrag beschreiben wir die Schlüsselbegriffe von kontextbezogener Wahrnehmung (“situated cognition”), Vygotskys Überlegungen (Zone der nächsten Entwicklung, das allgemeine Gesetz der Kulturentwicklung und die Vermittlungseigenschaften von Zeichen und Werkzeugen) sowie das Lernen von der Gemeinschaft.aus dem Praktizieren heraus. Auf Grundlage dieser Gedanken entwickeln wir Regeln für den Entwurf von web-basierten E-Lernumgebungen, deren Anwendung zur Überwindung des Unterschieds zwischen schulischem und beruflichem Lernen empfohlen wird. Wir belegen diese von uns entwickelten Grundsätze durch ein Beispiel, in dem wir “Knowledge Forum ™” einsetzen und Vorschläge zur weiteren Entwicklung der Wissensvermittlung unter Nutzung der beschriebenen Designregeln machen.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
