協同的な学習活動におけるコミュニケーションと道具 : 活動理論とデューイ

要旨

A new perspective on collaborative communication is presented. I will explain collaborative and communicative learning based on a synthesis of Vygotskian cultural-historical activity theory and Dewey's learning theory. Dewey's and activity theorists' perspectives share the following points. First, both emphasize life experiences. Communicative theory says that learning depends on the daily experiences of children. Second, communication is thought to be both a tool for exchanging ideas and experiences and an end in itself. For Dewey and activity theorists, activity and experience are defined as interactions between subject and objects. Third, the community plays the key role in communicative learning. It is emphasized that collaborative learning activities create a community of learners.
