Abstract

The main goal of this paper is to understand the underlying cognitive mechanisms of collaborative learning and how it can be supported by technology. The paper first overviews changes in conceptions of learning and distinguishes different types of joint works including collaborative learning. Cognitive mechanisms of collaborative learning are examined in terms of resource pooling, facilitation of constructive activities, knowledge co-construction, and supports for monitoring and regulation. Socio-emotional mechanisms of collaborative learning moderate the directions and strengths of these cognitive mechanisms. Technology supports these mechanisms in a number of different ways. Seven major supports technology provides for collaborative learning are discussed. A deeper understanding of the cognitive mechanisms of collaborative learning can help us to harness the benefits of collaborative learning better and also to develop more sophisticated tools supporting collaborative learning.

인지는 더 이상 개인 내적인 과정으로 개념화 할 수 없으며 학습 또한 마찬가지이다. 협동 및 상호작용에 대한 정보처리적 이해는 아직 부족한 실정인데, 본 논문에서는 학습의 개념이 어떻게 변화해 왔는지 그리고 협동의 과정이 어떠한 정보처리 기제에 의해서 매개되는지 살펴보았다. 협동학습의 주요 인지적 기제로 자원 공유, 구성적 학습 활동의 촉진, 지식 공동 구성, 및 모니터링과 조절 지원을 들 수 있는데, 이들 기제는 학습자 집단을 둘러싼 동기적, 환경적 기제와 상호작용하면서 협동학습의 결과물을 만들어 내는데 기여한다. 테크놀로지의 발달은 협동의 기회를 더욱 확장하고 있는데, 테크놀로지가 협동학습에 제공하는 기능을 7개의 어포던스를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 협업에 대한 보다 정교한 이해를 바탕으로 할 때 협업에 따르는 비용을 줄이면서 협동이 제공하는 다양한 학습 효과를 누리는 것은 물론 협업을 지원하는 효과적인 도구를 개발하는 것이 가능해질 것으로 기대된다.
