Scenario-based orchestration of Web 2.0 applications in university teaching and learning processes: a case study

Abstract

In the context of Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (CSCL), Web 2.0 applications are increasingly being used for Technology-Enhanced Learning (TEL). The paper presents the main principles of Web 2.0 and develops the hypotheses derived from the central aspect of collaborative learning. These hypotheses refer to the significance of Web 2.0 for the technical support of various collaborative teaching/learning scenarios within the TEL approach. With an example scenario, the paper demonstrates how Web 2.0 applications can be orchestrated to support a CSCL scenario in face-to-face classes and the effects that this will have on the cooperative learning process of students.
