Description¶
The strategy assigns each group member a distinct informational role across script scenes: the leader guides discussion and holds reading-strategy information, the writer records group decisions, the task guard holds the task, and the text guard a blurred text. Roles support "sharedness through information interdependency among group members", and "roles were rotated across the four sessions to increase motivation and learning". Alternate role assignment compels every member to contribute a piece of the planning or reflection information, so the group cannot complete a task representation, strategy selection or strategy reflection without pooling role-held information.
Design Implications¶
Context¶
Requirements¶
- Groups of four with one device per member and scripted distribution of task, text, strategy information and answer records across roles, following the Jigsaw distributed-information principle.
Constraints¶
- Role rotation over lessons was implemented so that students learned to approach a task from different viewpoints; rotated roles alone did not raise discussion depth beyond low-level regulation in this study.
Target Learners¶
- prevocational secondary school students
Target Learning Goals¶
- shared regulation of task-oriented reading: joint task representation, strategy selection and strategy reflection
