Abstract

The rapid spread of online learning has increased demand for promoting and grasping collaborative learning processes. In this paper, we present a multi-channel process analysis of collaborative knowledge building, using a custom-made concept map tool and the application of conventional videoconferencing. The analysis focused on a process of copying and merging elements from individually created maps to a collaboration map. The sequential calculation of edit distance between maps revealed characteristics of group dynamics. The group who successfully integrated concept maps deepened their understanding of the topic, while the other group engaging shallow cooperation failed to build mutual understanding. The result shows the effectiveness of collaborative concept mapping in grasping online collaborative learning.
