Current online discussions are chronological records of posts over time.
Understandings are surely developed, but are difficult to isolate, requiring much
traversing of the discussion space to identify and support critical discourse. As
online instruction efforts scale up to meet the needs of larger numbers of
students, the time required for instructors to support reflection and knowledge
creation become magnified. Discourse was designed by Ferster and Kinzie and a
cadre of graduate students to capitalize on the potential of the online medium
for advancing the pedagogy of online teaching and learning.
Discourse will help make explicit the convergence in thinking that occurs during
a discussion by treating each contribution as its own unit, able to be displayed
with other conceptually linked units whenever they occur. “Heat maps” of
conceptually-linked activity will provide a “reading” of the state of the
discussion at any point in time. Additionally, Discourse will make it possible to
easily introduce and annotate relevant media (texts, video, graphics, and
animations).
