Cognitive Learning01:21

Cognitive Learning

Cognitive learning is based on purposive behavior, incidental learning, and insight learning.
E. C. Tolman's theory of purposive behavior emphasizes that much behavior is goal-directed. He argued that to understand behavior, we must look at the entire sequence of actions leading to a goal. For instance, high school students study hard, not just due to past reinforcement but also to achieve the goal of getting into a good college.
Tolman introduced the idea that behavior is influenced by...

Purposive Learning

E. C. Tolman emphasized the purposiveness of behavior — the idea that much of our behavior is goal-directed. For instance, employees who aim for a promotion work diligently to meet their targets. Tolman argued that when classical conditioning and operant conditioning occur, the organism acquires certain expectations. In classical conditioning, a child might fear a dog because they expect it to bite. In operant conditioning, a person might consistently work overtime because they expect a bonus...
Cognitivism01:17

Cognitivism

Cognitive psychology emerged as a significant field in the mid-20th century. It focused on understanding humans' internal mental processes. This approach emphasizes how people perceive, remember, think, and solve problems—elements critical to human cognition.
Previously dominated by behaviorism, which prioritized observable behaviors and largely ignored mental processes, psychology transformed in the 1950s. Cognitive psychologists argue that understanding how we think and process information is...

Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication

Since the early 2000s, computer-mediated communication (CMC) has grown rapidly, playing a crucial role in self-development. A key distinction between CMC and real-life interactions is the lack of a physically present partner. This absence makes non-verbal cues such as facial expressions, body language, and paralinguistic signals unavailable in CMC platforms like email, instant messaging, or social media. The lack of these cues can create ambiguity and complicate how feedback is interpreted.The...
Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving01:13

Principle of Virtual Work: Problem Solving

The principle of virtual work is an essential concept in the field of mechanics and engineering. This is used to solve problems related to the equilibrium of a structure or system. It is based on the assumption that if a system is in equilibrium, the work done by all the forces during a virtual displacement is zero. This principle is applied by considering virtual displacements of the system and the corresponding work done by internal and external forces.
To apply the principle of virtual work,...
Facilitated Diffusion01:16

Facilitated Diffusion

The plasma membrane, a critical structure in cellular biology, houses an array of transporters, or carrier proteins, interspersed within its lipid bilayer. These proteins play a crucial role in solute transport through facilitated diffusion, a form of passive diffusion that uses transporters to move the molecules across the membrane.
In this process, substrates such as organic compounds and ions interact with a transporter on one side, triggering conformational changes in proteins that enable...

Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Educational Technology
  • Information Science

Background:

  • Knowledge management is crucial for organizational competitiveness and fostering learning organizations.
  • Modern work demands knowledge creation in mobile and ubiquitous scenarios, necessitating support from pervasive computing systems.
  • Existing systems often lack support for collaborative, mobile, and ubiquitous knowledge construction, particularly for tacit knowledge conversion.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To design, implement, and evaluate a system for Mobile Collaborative Knowledge Construction (MCKC).
  • To support undergraduate students in learning the knowledge construction process within ubiquitous scenarios.
  • To facilitate the conversion of tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge through mobile and collaborative means.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the MCKC system, a mobile application for collaborative knowledge construction.
  • Utilizing PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) with visual metaphors, gestures, and sketches for the human-computer interface.
  • Evaluation of the system's effectiveness in supporting face-to-face tacit knowledge construction and sharing in ubiquitous environments.

Main Results:

  • The MCKC system successfully supports collaborative, face-to-face tacit knowledge construction and sharing in ubiquitous scenarios.
  • Undergraduate students can utilize the system to create, make explicit, and share knowledge anytime and anywhere.
  • The system's interface, employing visual metaphors, gestures, and sketches, facilitates knowledge construction on mobile devices.

Conclusions:

  • Mobile and ubiquitous computing systems can effectively support collaborative knowledge construction among students.
  • The MCKC system provides a valuable tool for learning and practicing knowledge management skills in dynamic environments.
  • Further exploration of this issue is warranted, given its potential to enhance learning and organizational development.
