Research Abstract |
The improving process of discussion ability can be regarded as formation processes of self-regulated(and/or mutually regulated) feedback loops for learners' information processing. The success of its improvement depends on the formation and modification of the loop. A series of field experiments using a discussion process visualization tool" TrackSheet" partially demonstrated that the effective learning environment for discussion ability consists of(1) preparation of an observational framework for discussion process,(2) self-determination of improvement points by learners,(3) physical settings to enhance visualization of peer feedback, and(4) social settings to assist the effective peer feedback.
