In the twenty-first century, being able to collaborate effectively
is important at all ages, in everyday life, education and work,
within and across diverse cultural settings. People are
increasingly linked by networks that are not only means for working
and learning together, but are also ways of maintaining social and
emotional support. Collaborating with others requires not only
elaborating new ideas together, but also being able to manage
interpersonal relations. In order to design and facilitate
effective collaborative situations, the challenge is therefore to
understand the interrelations between social, affective and
cognitive dimensions of interactions in groups. Affective Learning
Together contains in-depth theoretical reviews and case studies of
group learning in a variety of educational situations and taught
disciplines, from small groups working in the secondary school
classroom, to teams of medical students and more informal working
groups at university level. Contributors provide detailed analyses
of the dynamics of interpersonal relations and affects, in relation
with processes of meaning and knowledge elaboration, including
discussion of: the variety of social learning situations and
experiences; social identities in group learning; emotion,
motivation and knowledge elaboration; conflict, arguments and
interpersonal tensions in group learning. Bringing together a broad
range of contributions from internationally recognised researchers
who are seeking to broaden, deepen and integrate the field of
research on collaborative learning, this book is essential reading
for all serious students of contemporary educational research and
practice.
