Online Project Space in Epistemic Dimensions of Learning

In the context of Epistemic Dimensions of Learning, online project space plays a crucial role in fostering shared epistemic agency and collaborative learning. Several studies shed light on the significance of project space in supporting knowledge building and epistemic agency:

1. Shared Epistemic Agency Development: Research has explored the development trajectory of shared epistemic agency in online collaborative learning through epistemic network analysis.

2. Designing for Epistemic Agency. Studies have focused on the objects students use and create in projects, analyzing students' project space to support knowledge building.

3. Exploring Epistemic Agency in Problem-Solving Activities. A case study delved into epistemic agency in a middle school context, emphasizing creating new ideas, evaluating them, and revising existing ones as shared knowledge objects within project activities

Online project spaces in Epistemic dimensions learning involve collaborative learning environments that focus on shared epistemic agency and beliefs. Research has explored the development trajectory of shared epistemic agency in online collaborative learning[1]. Epistemic Network Analysis (ENA) is a method used to identify and quantify connections among elements in online collaborative learning environments[2]. Internet-specific epistemic beliefs influence academic achievement in online collaborative learning contexts, emphasizing the importance of designing online spaces to cater to learners' needs and promote positive goal setting[3]. Additionally, there are theoretical and methodological directions for understanding knowledge co-elaboration in new digital spaces, highlighting the interplay of knowledge-based discussions and negotiation of competencies within online epistemic communities[4]. Furthermore, studies have investigated connected epistemic practices in laboratory-based engineering education to understand students' modeling and experimental activities at scale[5].

The online project space serves as a platform where students engage in collaborative problem-solving, idea generation, and knowledge advancement. It enables students to take collective responsibility for generating and advancing ideas towards solving problems, thereby fostering epistemic agency within a collaborative learning environment.
