Title
Kp-Lab System For The Support Of Collaborative Learning And Working Practices, Based On Trialogical Learning
Abstract
This paper presents an approach in the domain of collaborative systems for working and learning practices called KP-Lab System. This system provides integrated multifunctional application with interesting end-user functionalities as manifold semantic based manipulation possibilities with shared objects of activities in real time, a support for management and analysis of knowledge practices, tools for synchronous and asynchronous communication, tools for personal organization and customization of working spaces, etc. Theoretical background for presented system is provided by trialogical learning, an approach in the domain of collaborative learning or working, with several similar aspects to existing constructivist approaches to learning. These approaches and some other theories, e.g. activity theory and knowledge building had a strong influence on specification of trialogical learning characteristics and their analysis in real settings. Presented research and development results have been achieved in FP6 IST project called KP-Lab (Knowledge Practices Laboratory). KP-Lab is an ambitious project that focuses on developing a theory, methods and tools aimed at facilitating innovative practices of sharing, creating and working with knowledge in education and workplaces. Research and development are integrated into co-evolutionary process that consists of collaboration between various types of project partners and other stakeholders This paper focuses mainly on the technological results of this project, the KP-Lab System, presenting its architecture, main tools and interesting features provided by this system, e.g. its strong semantics-based character.
