Introspective Interactions: Implications from an International Collaboration

Anita Chadha, University of Houston, Downtown


Abstract

Research has found that online student-peer interactions enrich pedagogy so that students deliberate introspectively and coproduce meaningful content. This research evaluates student peer reflective interactions through an online collaboration in an identical course among students across international boundaries. Significant evidence reveals that students deliberate with academic reflectivity by clarifying and debating the questions asked of them while being inquisitive and tolerant of differing ideas. This study concludes that online collaborations are a viable means to engage students with academic content regardless of international boundaries.

Keywords: online learning, international pedagogy, online collaboration
