Abstract

Wiki provides a strong support for learners to carry out substantive collaborative learning and to co-construct knowledge in an open and smart learning environment, while there is a lack of effective methods to analyze and promote the quality of Wiki-based CKB. This study referenced Cress’s cognitive process model of CKB and Roschelle’s learners’ view change models in collaborative process to reconstruct quality analysis model for Wiki-based CKB. Based on this analysis model, authors analyzed learners’ online CKB behaviors in two cases. The methods used are content analysis and interviews. Authors hope this study can provide the basis for analyzing, designing and promoting Wikibased collaborative learning in an open and smart learning environment.
