Constructing liminal blends in a collaborative augmented-reality learning environment

Future direction for the CSCL field: Methodologies and eight controversies

“…Today, new methods are emerging, such as automatic analysis (forms of learning analytics) (Berland et al 2015) and new ways of connecting actions, conversations, and gestures that form part of participants' meaning-making processes. Interaction analysis (Jordan and Henderson 1995) has been an important methodology for many CSCL researchers over the last 20 years (Furberg 2016), which has been extended with the inclusion of gestures and the body (Davidsen and Ryberg 2017;Enyedy et al 2015). In their paper, Ben Rydal Shapiro, Rogers P. Hall, and David A. Owens extend the focus by including physical movements in their analysis.…”

Bodily Interactions in Motion-Based Music Applications

“…The resulting blended space is a spatial projection that takes the characteristics from both input spaces to create something completely new (Benyon, 2012). The conceptual blending theory forms the base of many design approaches, for instance in learning applications, where a user's first-person embodied experiences are used to model physics-related events in augmented-reality environments (Enyedy, Danish, & DeLiema, 2015). In the case of motion-based musical applications, the physical space is matched with the musical concept upon which the application is based (see Figure 1).…”

Collaboration scripts and scaffolding

“…The paper is part of an important approach in CSCL. Based on either a socio-cultural or situated stance towards collaboration, one tries to describe and analyze how interaction and learning takes place turn by turn over time in terms of learning trajectories (Stahl et al 2014;Stahl 2015;Furberg 2016;Enyedy et al 2015). This study follows a new line of research that involves teachers as part of the activities.…”
