Computers have transformed how we think, discuss and learn-as
individuals, in groups, within cultures and globally. However,
social media are problematic, fostering flaming, culture wars and
fake news. This volume presents an alternative paradigm for
computer support of group thinking, collaborative learning and
joint knowledge construction. This requires expanding concepts of
cognition to collectivities, like collaborative groups of networked
students. Theoretical Investigations explores the conditions for
group cognition, supplying a philosophical foundation for new
models of pedagogy and methods to analyze group interaction.
Twenty-five self-contained investigations document progress in
research on computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL)-both
in Stahl's own research and during the first decade of the CSCL
journal. The volume begins with two new reflections on the vision
and theory that result from this research. Representing both
ethnomethodological and social-constructivist research paradigms,
the investigations within this volume comprise a selection of
seminal and influential articles and critical commentaries that
contribute to an understanding of concepts and themes central to
the CSCL field. The book elaborates an innovative theory of group
cognition and substantiates the pedagogical potential of CSCL.
Theoretical Investigations: Philosophical Foundations of Group
Cognition is essential as a graduate text for courses in
educational theory, instructional design, learning and networked
technologies. The investigations will also appeal to researchers
and practitioners in those areas.
