摘要

摘要随着在线课程的发展，主持人可以在吸引和支持学习者参与异步在线讨论（AOD）方面发挥重要作用。然而，自该术语首次用于在线学习以来的40年里，还没有对调节者进行过综合研究。我们检查了76项研究，以确定研究人员已经确定的关于教育AOD适度的关键概念、特征和因素。我们发现了关于主持人定义、身份、角色、职责和培训方法的不同观点。基于对四个关于调节的概念框架的比较分析，我们制定了一个分类法，将调节者的职责划分为管理、监督、教学、技术和社会角色。了解如何在AOD中有效使用适度，可以通过为支持性资源和培训的开发提供信息，指导未来的研究和应用。最后，我们定义了适用于该领域未来系统审查的协议。

An exploratory review of literature on moderation in asynchronous discussions

Abstract With the growth of online courses, moderators can play a significant role in engaging and supporting learners in asynchronous online discussions (AODs). However, a synthesis of the research on moderators has not been performed in the 40 years since the term was first used in reference to online learning. We examined 76 studies to determine key concepts, characteristics, and factors that researchers have identified regarding moderation in educational AODs. We found disparate perspectives regarding moderator definitions, identities, roles, duties, and training approaches. Based on a comparative analysis of four conceptual frameworks on moderation, we developed a taxonomy that delineates moderator duties into managerial, monitoring, pedagogical, technical, and social roles. Understanding how moderation can be used effectively in AODs could direct future research and applications to practice by informing the development of supportive resources and training. We conclude by defining protocols applicable to a future systematic review in this area.
