Words, words, words... • Groupware (ryhmätyöohjelmisto) • CSCW/CSCL (Computer-Supported Collaborative Work/Learning) • Telework • IDLE (Integrated Distributed Learning Environment)
Some Examples of IDLEs • CSILE (Computer-Supported Intentional Learning Environment) -> Knowledge Forum • FLE(Future Learning Environment) • ACT (Asynchronous Collaboration Tool) • BSCW(Basic Support for Collaborative Work) • WebCT, Blackboard • LearningSpace • Proto, Telsi, R5 Generation
Characteristics (1/2) • Based on a collaborative learning instructional paradigm (“group collaboration”) • Multi-user, hypertext-based digital workspace environments • Make extensive use of the asynchronous and synchronous collaborative tools available on the Internet • Client/server applications using standard Internet protocols
Characteristics (2/2) • Most accessible via web browsers (Netscape, Internet Explorer, Opera) • Provide access from different computer platforms (Windows, Mac, UNIX) • Some specifically designed for educational applications; others for business purposes • Many designed to make cognitive processes visible and encourage reflection in students(McGreal 1998; Sloffer, Dueber & Duffy 1999)
Challenges (1/3) • What salient educational features are still missing? • What sort of thinking, working, communication & studying paradigms do IDLEs support? (e.g., decision making, tutoring & guidance, “business” models)? • Which are the larger media-educational contexts that should be researched or focused on?
Challenges (2/3) • How do we incorporate asynchronous work (telework) with different teaching and studying environments? • How do IDLEs support collaborative & communal studying and working? • How do IDLEs support the teaching-studying-learning (TSL) process? (cf. virtuality, virtual school)
Challenges (3/3) • How do IDLEs support dialogic and cross-cultural communication? • How do we balance openness and “discipline”? • Are IDLEs scalable according to the number of users? • How user-friendlyare they (use of text, graphics, audio, data)? • What kind of (virtual) communities are IDLEs intended for? • What criteria should be used when adopting and assessing IDLEs?
