Abstract

The assessment of collaborative learning is a central issue and its challenges are well known in this field. This study aims to analyze knowledge convergence through an innovative analytical method. A total of 192 participants were randomly divided into 48 groups of 4 people. They conducted online collaborative learning for 2 h. The process and outcome of knowledge convergence were analyzed by the knowledge map method in this study. The results indicated that the activation quantity of the common knowledge map is an effective indicator for knowledge convergence. Knowledge convergence can also significantly predict group performance in a CSCL context. The implications of the results and future studies are discussed in detail.
