Book Collaborative Creativity Processes in a Wiki

Download or read book Collaborative Creativity Processes in a Wiki written by ̌ Manoli Pifarr and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 8 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores how wiki may be used to support secondary education students' collaborative creativity processes and how such interaction can promote critical and creativity thinking. A science case-based project in which 81 secondary students participated was designed, implemented and evaluated. Students worked in the science wiki project during two weeks. We scaffold students to be collaboratively engaged in purposeful critical and creative discourse in order to solve collectively science challenges and construct meaning about topics related to environmental challenges. Through the analyses of students' contributions in the wiki we have characterized collaborative creativity processes in science inquiry that includes performance (processes to develop a novel way of approaching and understanding the problem) and collaboration (peer collaboration, dialogue). The significance of the paper relays on the operationalization of the collaborative creativity processes in the wiki within four overarching learning to learn together skills, which are: distributed leadership, mutual engagement, peer evaluation and group reflection. Our findings showed that the wiki environment afforded the development of an effective and creative online collaborative learning community. In student's wiki contributions, the four learning to learn together skills took place. However, not all the groups displayed the four learning together skills during their collaboration in the wiki and there were differences among groups in relation to the presence and proportion of these skills. We discuss the contribution of these four learning to learn together skills for the collaborative creativity processes and the relation of the presence of the above mentioned skills with the level of creativity showed in the collaborative writing product students produced in the wiki project. Besides, the paper discusses a series of issues that instructors should consider when wikis are incorporated into teaching and learning for creativity. We claim that embedded scaffolds to help students to argue and reason creatively in their contributions in the wiki environment are needed. [For the complete proceedings, see ED557311.].

Book Expanding Literacy Practices Across Multiple Modes and Languages for Multilingual Students

Download or read book Expanding Literacy Practices Across Multiple Modes and Languages for Multilingual Students written by Luciana C. de Oliveira and published by IAP. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literacy practices have changed over the past several years to incorporate modes of representation much broader than language alone, in which the textual is also related to the visual, the audio, the spatial, etc. This book focuses on research and instructional practices necessary for integrating an expanded view of literacy in the classroom that offers multiple points of entry for all students. Projects highlighted in this book incorporate multiple modes of communication (e.g., visual, aural, textual) through various digital and print-based written formats. In addition, this book particularly focuses on the possibilities that this expanded view of literacy holds for emergent to advanced bilingual students and specific scaffolds necessary for supporting them. Our focus is specifically multilingual students as classrooms across the United States and other English-speaking countries around the world become more and more diverse. The book considers educators as active participants in social change and contributors to our overall goal of social justice for all. This book grew out of work conducted by doctoral students and former doctoral students, now faculty at various universities, from the Language and Literacy Learning in Multilingual Settings (LLLMS) specialization in the Department of Teaching and Learning at the School of Education and Human Development at the University of Miami, Florida. The most outstanding feature of this work is the breadth of examples for integrating literacy in the classroom, as well as the specific instructional strategies provided for supporting multilingual students. This volume is unique in tackling both literacy and specific scaffolding for multilingual students. Additionally, the chapters here collectively aim to go beyond describing research to also provide a variety of classroom connections for practitioners and implications for teacher education.
