A Preliminary Study of University Students' Collaborative Learning Behavior Patterns in the Context of Online Argumentation Le
A Preliminary Study of University Students’ Collaborative Learning Behavior Patterns in the Context of Online Argumentation Learning Activities: The Role of Idea-Centered Collaborative Argumentation Instruction Ying-Tien Wu, Li-Jen Wang, and Teng-Yao Cheng [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Graduate Institute of Network Learning Technology, National Central University, Taiwan Abstract: Learners have more and more opportunities to encounter a variety of socio-scientific issues (SSIs) and they may have difficulties in collaborative argumentation on SSIs. Knowledge building is a theory about idea-centered collaborative knowledge innovation and creation. The application of idea-centered collaboration practice as emphasized in knowledge building may be helpful for facilitating students’ collaborative argumentation. To examine the perspective above, this study attempted to integrate idea-centered collaboration into argumentation practice. The participants were 48 university students and were randomly divided into experimental and control group (n=24 for both groups). The control group only received argumentation instruction, while the experimental group received explicit idea-centered collaborative argumentation (CA) instruction. This study found that two groups of students revealed different collaborative learning behavior patterns. It is also noted that the students in the experimental group benefited more in collaborative argumentation from the proper adaption of knowledge building and explicit idea-centered collaborative argumentation instruction. Introduction In the knowledge-based societies, learners have more and more opportunities to encounter a variety of social dilemmas coming with rapid development in science and technologies. These social dilemmas are often termed “Socio-scientific issues (SSIs)” which are controversial social issues that are generally ill-structured, open-ended authentic problems which have multiple solutions (Sadler, 2004; Sadler & Zeidler, 2005). -

Herbicide Group Classification
Herbicide Group Classification Limiting the resistance of weeds to herbicides is a b ig concern for most farmers. Herbicide resistance leads to reduced yields, increased control costs and stress. Traditionally herbicide resistance develops when a producer uses the same herbicide or herbicides with the same mode of action repeatedly over some time. Depending on the cropping system, weeds present and the herbicides used, resistance can develop quickly. In corn production, the presence of triazine resistant lamb’s quarters and pigweed is well documented. They originated with the continuous use of atrazine based products over several years. As a result, similar herbicides, with the same mode of action as atrazine can be ineffective against some of these populations. In recent years, fields in the mid western United States, that have been in continuous Roundup Ready corn and soybean rotations, are showing several glyphosate resistant weed species. There are several ways to minimize herbicide resistance development: Using robust crop rotations, integrating physical weed control strategies (tillage) and rotating herbicides with different modes of action. Herbicide rotation is not as easy as it sounds. Simply using a different herbicide may not give the desired effect of mode of action rotation. Using two different herbicides, with the same mode of action, could illicit the same resistance response in a particular weed. For example, switching from atrazine to simazine may still encourage triazine resistance, as they are both triazines and have similar modes of action. Mode of action: The mode of action indicates the way that a pesticide works to stop the normal function of the pest, and eventually suppress or even kill the pest. -

Dear SCCA Media Partners, Welcome to what is truly a new era of the Sports Car Club of America, as the SCCA National Champi- onship Runoffs heads west for the first time in 46 years to Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. This event, made possible with the help of our friends and partners at Mazda and the Sports Car Rac- ing Association of the Monterey Peninsula (SCRAMP), was met with questions at its announcement that have been answered in a big way, with more than 530 drivers on the entry list and a rejunvenaton of the west coast program all season long. While we haven’t been west of the Rockies since River- side International Raceway in 1968, it’s hard to believe it will be that long before we return again. The question on everyone’s mind, even more than usual, is who is going to win? Are there hidden gems on the west coast who may be making their first Runoffs appearance that will make a name for themselves on the national stage, or will the traditional contenders learn a new track quickly enough to hold their titles? My guess is that we’ll see some of each. -
