Description¶

The authors recommend that networked learning communities be given feedback from the multi-method analyses repeatedly during their activity, not only at the end, so participants can reflect more strategically on their performance and decide how to move forward. They write that "NLCs should be provided (and create this themselves) with feedback on SNA, CA and C /C2A repeatedly during their activity". This extends the multi-method framework from a research instrument into a support tool for the community itself.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• the multi-method analyses (SNA, CA, C/C2A) must be conducted repeatedly during the community's activity

Constraints¶

• the authors frame this as a direction for future research and support design, not as a tested intervention in this study

Target Learners¶

• participants and tutors in networked learning communities

Target Learning Goals¶

• strategic self- and group-regulation of collaborative learning

Affordances¶

• Multi Method Sna Ca Cer Framework

Related Strategies¶

• Support novice online teachers by introducing them to a larger pedagogical framework within which design decisions can be located
