The field of CSCL is at a critical moment in its development. Internally we face issues of fragmentation and questions about what progress is being made. Externally the rise of social media and a variety of research communities that study the interactions within it raise questions about our unique identity and larger impact on the world. To illuminate the complex issues involved and the multiple perspectives that exist on them, we conducted an iterative and generative consultation with members of the CSCL community through individual interviews and public interactive presentations. The result is a series of eight provocations for the field, each presented as a dialogue between the Provocateur/Provocatrice (who seeks to shake up the status quo) and the Conciliator (who seeks to build on the achievements of our current traditions). The provocations address the debated need for six things: one conceptual framework to unite our diverse tools and theories (#1), prioritization of learner agency over collaborative scripting (#2), scrupulous scrutiny of when “collaboration” and “community” are said to exist (#3), the pursuit of computational approaches to understand collaborative learning (#5), learning analytics and adaptive support to be a top priority in the field (#6), and the expansion of our focus to seriously address social media and large-scale learning environments (#7). In addition, the provocations highlight two areas in which perhaps we should desist: the attempt to reconcile analytical and interpretative approaches to understanding collaboration (#4), and the goal of achieving tangible change in the education system (#8). There are no resolutions offered in this paper; the interchanges presented are designed to lay out the complex constellation of issues involved and can be considered a dialogue that we are still in the process of having with ourselves as individuals and together as a community. We stress the urgency and importance for the field of CSCL to take up these questions and tensions, and critically, to work towards decisions and resultant actions. Our future as a scientific community — our very existence and identity, depends on it.

CSCL的愿景：该领域未来的八项挑衅

CSCL领域正处于发展的关键时刻。在内部，我们面临着分散的问题以及正在取得什么进展的问题。从外部看，社交媒体和各种研究社交媒体互动的兴起引起了人们对我们独特身份和对世界更大影响的质疑。为了阐明所涉及的复杂问题和存在的多种观点，我们通过个人访谈和公开互动展示与CSCL社区成员进行了迭代和生成性的磋商。结果是针对该领域的一系列八次挑衅，每一次都是通过挑衅者/挑衅者（试图改变现状）和调解人（试图以我们当前传统的成就为基础）之间的对话提出的。这些挑衅解决了辩论中对六件事的需求：一个概念框架，将我们多样化的工具和理论结合在一起（＃1），将学习者代理机构的优先次序高于协作脚本（＃2），对何时说“协作”和“社区”进行了严格的审查的存在（＃3），追求理解协作学习的计算方法（＃5），学习分析和自适应支持成为该领域的重中之重（＃6），以及我们专注于社交媒体的扩展和大规模学习环境（＃7）。此外，这些挑衅突出了我们也许应该停止的两个领域：调和分析和解释方法以理解合作的尝试（第4步），以及实现教育体系有形变化的目标（第8步）。本文没有提供解决方案。所呈现的交流旨在布局所涉及问题的复杂格局，可以视为我们仍在与个人，社区共同进行对话的过程中。我们强调CSCL领域应对这些问题和紧张局势的紧迫性和重要性，并至关重要地努力做出决定和采取的行动。我们作为科学共同体的未来-我们的生存和身份取决于它。我们强调CSCL领域应对这些问题和紧张局势的紧迫性和重要性，并至关重要地努力做出决定和采取的行动。我们作为科学共同体的未来-我们的生存和身份取决于它。我们强调CSCL领域应对这些问题和紧张局势的紧迫性和重要性，并至关重要地努力做出决定和采取的行动。我们作为科学共同体的未来-我们的生存和身份取决于它。
