Abstract
Background
Online collaborative learning has been broadly applied in the field of higher education. Nevertheless, not all types of collaborative learning can produce the desired learning results.
Objectives
To facilitate online collaborative learning, the present study proposed an innovative artificial intelligence-enabled group cognitive diagnosis approach with the goal of improving online collaborative learning.
Methods
A total of 135 college students was included in the current study and divided into 45 groups. A total of 15 groups consisting of 45 students used the group cognitive diagnosis approach. An additional 15 groups were assigned to the group knowledge graph approach, while the remaining 15 groups were assigned to the traditional online collaborative learning approach.
Results and Conclusions
The findings of this research indicated that the group cognitive diagnosis approach had more significant and positive impacts on collaborative learning performance, knowledge elaboration, and higher-order cognitive engagement than did the group knowledge graph and traditional online collaborative learning approaches.
Implications
The current study deepens our understanding of group cognition and the corresponding complex interactions and provides a new method for improving online collaborative learning.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Computer Assisted Learning is an international peer-reviewed journal which covers the whole range of uses of information and communication technology to support learning and knowledge exchange. It aims to provide a medium for communication among researchers as well as a channel linking researchers, practitioners, and policy makers. JCAL is also a rich source of material for master and PhD students in areas such as educational psychology, the learning sciences, instructional technology, instructional design, collaborative learning, intelligent learning systems, learning analytics, open, distance and networked learning, and educational evaluation and assessment. This is the case for formal (e.g., schools), non-formal (e.g., workplace learning) and informal learning (e.g., museums and libraries) situations and environments. Volumes often include one Special Issue which these provides readers with a broad and in-depth perspective on a specific topic. First published in 1985, JCAL continues to have the aim of making the outcomes of contemporary research and experience accessible. During this period there have been major technological advances offering new opportunities and approaches in the use of a wide range of technologies to support learning and knowledge transfer more generally. There is currently much emphasis on the use of network functionality and the challenges its appropriate uses pose to teachers/tutors working with students locally and at a distance. JCAL welcomes: -Empirical reports, single studies or programmatic series of studies on the use of computers and information technologies in learning and assessment -Critical and original meta-reviews of literature on the use of computers for learning -Empirical studies on the design and development of innovative technology-based systems for learning -Conceptual articles on issues relating to the Aims and Scope
