Abstract

Interaction analysis plays an important role in computer-supported collaborative learning. This paper proposes a multidimensional analysis framework to study the interaction and makes use of the quantitative analysis method to assess the collaborative knowledge building (CKB) outcomes at individual and group levels. A tool is developed that can support interaction analysis, text analysis, social network analysis and a combination of the above to show the differences of cognitive content and constructive level in terms of collaborative knowledge building. A case study of the interaction analysis via using the tool is presented.
