Sharing videos online as a «cultural space of participation» (Müller, 2009, p. 136)can be understood as collaborative production. It often means to capture glimpses, moments and personal experiences and to provide them to relevant others with the least technical obstacles. As David Buckingham puts it with reference to
taking videos in classrooms:
Set against the tendency towards individualization, group work needs to be
perceived as a matter of mutual self-interest: students need to recognize
that only by pooling resources, expertise and ideas can they get the job done.
(Buckingham, 2003, p. 187)
More generally Wolf (2001, p. 199) presents a hierarchical model for participative learning in online communities.
Create: a basic element of a constructivist learning environment is to allow learners to create their own contents. By creating an external representation they make parts of their internal world model explicit.
Construct: instead of accumulating unrelated bits of knowledge, students need to construct a deeper structure connecting their own and other students’ representations. They should identify parallels, connections, dependencies, and conclusions as well as omissions, contradictions, or errors.
Communicate: a central functional element of teaching-learning processes is the exchange of information, knowledge, experiences, opinions and attitudes between the learners as well as between the learners and the teacher. This can happen within a conversation but it is also possible to use other media such as a text, an illustration, a physical model, or an outline – public entities in the sense of Papert (1991). As shown in Figure 1, the curved arrows symbolize that communication processes depend on an active intake instead of a passive input.
Cooperate: learning is a process highly dependent on the willingness of the interaction partners to help each other. Asking for and receiving answers, help or guidance is a central learning activity. Cooperation can also mean to take over co-responsibility for other students’ learning.
Collaborate: Collaboration means that two or more persons are jointly working to solve a problem or produce some entity, shouldering the responsibility for the result together. Both success and failure will be attributed to all members involved in collaboration.
