Abstract

CSCL learning environments provide new contexts for discussions and are thought to provide new opportunities for learning. At the same time, such environments often do not provide guidance on how to act during the discussion. The purpose of this paper is to initiate research on moderation in synchronous discussions in a CSCL environment. The first study contrasts teachers' beliefs on good discussions and good moderation pertaining to face-to-face discussions with those pertaining to synchronous, CSCL-mediated discussions. The second study focuses on the strategies teachers intuitively enact in synchronous discussions.
