Vocational education and training (VET) is tasked to develop its practices toenhance learners’ collaboration skills. Collaborative technologies play an increasing role ininitial VET. This paper presents a systematic review on the use of CSCL in initial VET.Starting from an initial set of 823 papers, identified in major databases, each paper was codedby multiple researchers to identify demographics (sample sizes, countries, work domains),methods (data sources, technology design) and outcomes (analysis, forms of collaboration).Finally, only 26 papers met our selection criteria, which illustrates that CSCL research isdominated by K-12 and higher education contexts, while vocational learning contexts areunder-represented in this field of study. This observation spurs the question if there isanything unique in VET worthy of being investigated through a CSCL framework. Ouranalysis hints at a positive answer to this question, both for technological and collaborativecomponents. |
