Abstract

In this paper we explored collaborative re-use of educational video. The focus is on how to design supporting media in relation to how users jointly constructed a shared understanding of the tasks at hand. We explore the collaborative tasks of constructing collages using episodes of recorded speech, including tutorial dialogues and broadcast talk. The practices were devised, recorded and analysed both in digital environments such as Powerpoint, and in physical settings in which hard-paper snapshots embodied the video-clips. We report problems that emerge from such practices that relate to the open interpretation of the representations, and the need to rely on this to achieve active spectatorship. Our discussion relies on how users collaboratively conduct the tasks and appropriate the tools. This suggests some principles that address issues of designing support for collaborative learning in which digital video is used as a resource.
