Special Program Support for the Second Computer Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL '97) Conference, December 1997, Toronto, Canada

9801296科施曼推出CSCL会议是为了提供一个国际论坛，研究如何利用技术加强协作教学形式，并提供更多关于人们如何在协作环境中学习的基础研究。CSCL‘97将于今年12月举行，将由多伦多大学和安大略省教育研究所主办。寻求特别方案支持，以解决与会议有关的三个问题--研究社区内能力建设的需要，建立与教学社区联系的桥梁的需要，以及提供社区记忆援助的需要，以记录会议所取得的成果。为了解决这些问题，提出了三个计划：博士联盟、教师参与计划和CSCL‘97虚拟会议。博士联盟计划作为一项会前活动。它将把来自不同机构的博士生聚集在一起，与来自与教育技术相关的各个领域的选定教职员工讨论他们计划中的论文项目。教师参与计划将包括两个主要组成部分--课堂访问和教师小组。课堂访问是由课堂教师设计的一小时身临其境的体验，目的是让与会者熟悉CSCL技术在实际课堂中的使用方式。会议期间计划进行五次课堂访问。开展课堂访问的五名教师还将参加教师小组，这是一项旨在促进教师和研究人员就未来CSCL工作方向进行讨论的全体活动。CSCL‘97虚拟会议旨在创建会议的档案“社区记忆”，特别关注一些特殊和紧急的事件。其目的是创建数字图像、视频、音频和文本的蒙太奇，会议结束后可通过会议网站和CD-ROM获得。

9801296 Koschmann The CSCL conferences were introduced to provide an international forum for research into the ways that technology might be used to enhance collaborative forms of instruction as well as more fundamental research into how people learn in collaborative settings. CSCL '97 will take place in December of this year and will be hosted by the University of Toronto and the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education. Special program support is sought to address three concerns relative to the conference-the need for capacity-building within the research community, the need to construct a bridge to the teaching community, and the need to provide a community memory aid that will document what is accomplished at the meeting. To address these concerns, three programs are proposed: the Doctoral Consortium, the Teacher Participation Program, and the CSCL '97 Virtual Conference. The Doctoral Consortium is planned as a pre-conference activity. It will bring together Ph.D. students from a variety of institutions to discuss their planned dissertation projects with a selected set of faculty members drawn from the various fields related to educational technology. The Teacher Participation Program will have two major components-Classroom Visitations and the Teachers' Panel. The Classroom Visitations are one-hour immersive experiences designed by classroom teachers to acquaint conference attendees with the ways that CSCL technologies have been used in actual classrooms. Five Classroom Visitations are planned over the course of the conference. The five teachers who develop the Classroom Visitations will also participate in the Teachers' Panel, a plenary event designed to foster discussion among teachers and researchers about the direction of future CSCL work. The CSCL '97 Virtual Conference is designed to create an archival "community memory" of the conference, focusing in particular on some of the special and emergent events. The intent is to create a montage of digitized images, video, a udio, and text, which will be available following the conference both through the conference website, and on a CD-ROM.
