Student interactions for promoting learning in online educational platforms: a multidisciplinary perspective on discussion forums

25 May, 2023

Louvain-la-neuve, Belgium

 

The MOOCresearch2.0 team is organizing a symposium to present the main results of the MOOCresearch2.0 project. This five-year project, funded by the Collective Research Initiative (ARC, 2019-2024), sought to address the challenges of fostering social interactions and socio-cognitive conflicts to promote learning in an online learning platform. Through a multidisciplinary perspective, we investigated the presence and unfolding of socio-cognitive conflicts in the forums of massive open online courses (MOOCs) developed by LouvainX on the edX platform.

The day will be structured around several team presentations and invited lectures. We are very happy to announce the participation of the following Keynote speakers: 

  • Carlos Alario-Hoyos (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid, Spain), Automatic grading of MOOC learners from their contributions in the discussion forum 

  • Freydis Vogel (University of Hamburg, Germany), Social activities in online learning: The benefits of transactive exchange.
