Subclaims¶

q1 i? Collaborative knowledge building is more than knowledge sharing because internalized wiki information can interact with prior knowledge to create qualitatively new, emergent knowledge. → Ulrike Cress & Joachim Kimmerle 2008

Evidence¶

Ulrike Cress & Joachim Kimmerle 2008¶

Ulrike Cress & Joachim Kimmerle. (2008). A systemic and cognitive view on collaborative knowledge building with wikis. Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning. https://doi.org/10.1007/s11412-007-9035-z

q1 · i? · theoretical · r2

Conceptual argument in the Internalization section, illustrated in Fig. 2 where cognitive system 3 develops emergent knowledge by inference from internalized and prior knowledge. The article calls this "collaborative knowledge building which is more than mere knowledge sharing"; no data test it.

"If people internalize information from the wiki, knowledge can develop which was formerly neither part of their personal knowledge nor part of the wiki."
