How is it possibly generated in these networked communities? Provide examples to illustrate your points.<\/li>\n<li>According to Bielaczyc and Collins (1999): \"The defining quality of a learning community is that there is a culture of learning in which everyone is involved in a collective effort of understanding. There are four characteristics that such a culture must have: (1) diversity of expertise among its members who are valued for their contributions and given support to develop, (2) a shared objective of continually advancing the collective knowledge and skills, (3) an emphasis on learning how to learn, and (4) mechanisms for sharing what is learned.\" 1 In what ways do the networked communities you examined represent this characterization of learning communities? What implications does this have for your practice and the design of learning activities?<\/li>\n<li>Hypothesize how conceptual resources and practices are mobilized in classroom settings? How might they also be mobilized in these networked communities? In both cases, which resources and practices are emphasized and what are the roles of different members in relationship to mobilization of resources and practices?<\/li>\n<li>Globe researchers have suggested that Globe is an example of anchored instruction. Do you agree or disagree with this statement and why?<\/li>\n<li>Compare the examples of networked communities you focused on. What are several cognitive and social affordances of membership in these networked communities? How might understanding of a math or science misconception be addressed in these technology-enhanced environments? Name the misconception and describe it in your post, drawing upon the reading(s) you did for the social construction of knowledge.<\/li>\n<li>Speculate on how such networked communities could be embedded in the design of authentic learning experiences in a math or science classroom setting or at home. Elaborate with an illustrative example of an activity, taking care to consider the off-line activities as well.<\/li>\n<li>How do the networked communities you focused on differ from Jasper, WISE, my World GIS or Chemland? What are some similarities?<\/li>\n<li>How can learning be distributed and accelerated with access to digital resources and specialized tools and what are several implications of learning of math and science just in time and on demand?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>\n<\/div><\/div><!-- #random-accordion-id-991end of accordion shortcode --><br \/>\n<strong><span style=\"color: #01a9db\">2. <\/span><\/strong>Respond to <strong>two<\/strong>\u00a0other posts by\u00a0<em><span style=\"color: #01a9db\">Friday of Week 12<\/span><\/em>.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/24\/virtual-reality-in-support-of-authentic-learning\/\" title=\"Virtual Reality in support of Authentic Learning\" class=\"\">Virtual Reality in support of Authentic Learning<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/ryansilverthorne\/\" title=\"Posts by RyanSilverthorne\">RyanSilverthorne<\/a> on March 24, 2018<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/23\/knowledge-construction-in-mathematics\/\" title=\"Knowledge construction in mathematics\" class=\"\">Knowledge construction in mathematics<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/vivien-kamhoua\/\" title=\"Posts by vivien kamhoua\">vivien kamhoua<\/a> on March 23, 2018<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/23\/virtual-field-trips-and-electricity\/\" title=\"Virtual Field Trips and Electricity\" class=\"\">Virtual Field Trips and Electricity<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/caleb-poole\/\" title=\"Posts by caleb poole\">caleb poole<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/23\/constructing-knowledge-vft\/\" title=\"Constructing Knowledge &amp; VFT\" class=\"\">Constructing Knowledge &amp; VFT<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/shayla-mangat\/\" title=\"Posts by shayla mangat\">shayla mangat<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/23\/making-math-meaninful\/\" title=\"Making Math Meaningful\" class=\"\">Making Math Meaningful<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/amanda-gill\/\" title=\"Posts by amanda gill\">amanda gill<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/23\/knowledge-diffusion-communication-advantages\/\" title=\"Knowledge Diffusion &amp; Communicative Advantages\" class=\"\">Knowledge Diffusion &amp; Communicative Advantages<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/alicewong\/\" title=\"Posts by alicewong\">alicewong<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/22\/knowing-science-within-a-community\/\" title=\"Knowing Science within a Community\" class=\"\">Knowing Science within a Community<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/tracy-evans\/\" title=\"Posts by tracy evans\">tracy evans<\/a> on March 22, 2018<\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/22\/vr-field-trips\/\" title=\"VR Field Trips\" class=\"\">VR Field Trips<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/nicole-moxey\/\" title=\"Posts by nicole moxey\">nicole moxey<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/22\/constructivist-knowledge-diffusion\/\" title=\"Constructivist Knowledge Diffusion\" class=\"\">Constructivist Knowledge Diffusion<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/amanda-ghegin\/\" title=\"Posts by amanda ghegin\">amanda ghegin<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/22\/5762\/\" title=\"More initialisms &#8211; VFT and IVE\" class=\"\">More initialisms &#8211; VFT and IVE<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><em>Posted by <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/author\/kathryn-gardner\/\" title=\"Posts by Kathryn Williams\">Kathryn Williams<\/a> on <\/em><\/p>\n<h4><a target=\"_self\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/stem2018\/2018\/03\/22\/how-did-you-do-that-merging-science-with-the-real-world\/\" title=\"How did you do that!?
