Social Scripts02:10

Social Scripts

People tend to know what behavior is expected of them in specific, familiar settings. A script is a person’s knowledge about the sequence of events expected in a specific setting (Schank & Abelson, 1977). Essentially, scripts are a particular kind of schema, one containing default values for the features within an event. In the restaurant example, the script's features include the props (e.g., tables, menu, food, and money), the roles to be played (e.g., customer and waiter), the opening...
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...

Social Cognitive Perspective on Personality01:30

Social Cognitive Perspective on Personality

Social cognitive perspectives on personality emphasize the importance of conscious awareness, beliefs, expectations, and goals in shaping behavior. These perspectives incorporate behaviorist principles, such as learning through reinforcement and conditioning, but extend beyond them by highlighting human reasoning and planning. Unlike traditional behaviorist views, social cognitive theory focuses on how individuals reflect on their past experiences and plan for future outcomes by considering...
Vygotsky's Cognitive Development in Cultural Context01:22

Vygotsky's Cognitive Development in Cultural Context

Lev Vygotsky, a pioneering Russian psychologist, developed a theory of cognitive development that centers on the influence of social and cultural factors. Unlike Jean Piaget, who emphasized the child's direct interaction with the physical world as key to development, Vygotsky argued that cognitive growth is an interpersonal process that unfolds within a cultural context. For Vygotsky, a child's learning cannot be separated from their social environment, which includes the values, beliefs, and...
Theory of Attribution I: Correspondent Inference Theory01:15

Theory of Attribution I: Correspondent Inference Theory

Correspondent inference theory, proposed by Jones and Davis in 1965, seeks to explain how individuals infer stable personality traits from observed behaviors. It suggests that people attribute actions to underlying dispositions rather than external circumstances, particularly when the behavior appears intentional and socially significant.Voluntary Behavior and Dispositional AttributionAccording to this theory, individuals are more likely to attribute behavior to personal traits when it appears...

Area of Science:

  • Educational Technology
  • Cognitive Science
  • Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL)

Background:

  • Existing research lacks a comprehensive theory to explain the dynamic interplay of learner scripts within CSCL environments.
  • Understanding how internal and external scripts influence collaborative learning is crucial for designing effective CSCL practices.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a novel script theory for guiding computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL).
  • To elucidate how internal and external scripts shape and are shaped by CSCL practices.
  • To provide principles for optimizing scaffolding and fading of external scripts in CSCL.

Main Methods:

  • The study outlines a theoretical framework based on script theory, defining components like plays, scenes, roles, and scriptlets.
  • It proposes 7 principles governing the interaction and development of internal and external collaboration scripts.
  • The theory emphasizes the role of active and transactive knowledge application in CSCL.

Main Results:

  • The theory explains how dynamically reconfigured internal scripts influence CSCL practices and develop through participation.
  • It details how external scripts modify CSCL practices and impact internal script development.
  • Principles are provided for optimal scaffolding and fading of external scripts, enabling hypothesis formulation.

Conclusions:

  • The script theory offers a robust framework for understanding and guiding CSCL practices.
  • It highlights the importance of transactive knowledge application and strategic use of external scripts for effective learning.
  • Further research is needed to address conceptual challenges and refine the theory's application.
