Paper Abstract:
|
The goal of this poster is to outline our current work on the adaptation of an asynchronous communication tool in order
to improve support provided to learning processes based on social practice situations in the context of the Universitat
Oberta de Catalunya (Open University of Catalonia, UOC) Virtual Campus. In short, we present the development of an
electronic forum prototype, the design of which incorporates a set of functionalities conceived to favour the development
of collaborative learning and social knowledge building processes, as well as the production of quality conceptual
artefacts. |
