在线讨论已经越来越多地融入到大学的面对面课堂中，以增强学生对课程内容的学习。过去的研究主要集中在在线讨论的最终产品上。研究报告的结果要么是成功的，要么是没有达到预期的学习效果。需要对在线讨论的设计与成功之间的关系进行深入调查。本文报告了我们开展基于设计的三阶段研究的经验：(1)设计在线讨论活动；(2)在大学课程中实施我们的设计；(3)实证调查我们的设计。
Online discussions have been increasingly integrated into face-to-face classes at universities to enhance student learning of course content. The primary focus of past research has been on the end products of online discussions. Studies reported either successful findings or results that fell short of desired learning outcomes. An in-depth investigation is needed about how the design of online discussions is related to success. This paper reports our experiences in conducting a three-phase, design-based study: (1) designing the online discussion activity; (2) implementing our design in a university course; (3) empirically investigating our design.
