Session Submission Type: Symposium

Abstract

A landmark symposium, held at PME-NA in 2002, opened with the sentence “New theoretical, methodological, and design frameworks for engaging classroom learning are provoked and supported by the highly interactive and group-centered capabilities of a new generation of classroom–based networks.” Since that time, researchers have used the new technology affordances to design activities, software, and pedagogies to structure productive learning experiences. This symposium, 10 years later, aims to (1) review and reflect on the major research findings (2) present and discuss refinements to theory (3) share and cross-fertilize design frameworks and (4) raise and debate the important issues that lie ahead. Perspectives ranging from design to discourse to methodology and evaluation will be represented and engaged in panel discussion.
