Abstract:

 

In the current century, power and prestige of individual or community are related  with their knowledge and the capability to use information effectively. For  effective and individualized knowledge construction process, e-Learning design  changes to more social and collaborative design with new generation technology  (Young, 2011). WE-learning is the combination of mobile learning and e-learning  called ubiquitous learning integrated with social networks for collaborative  knowledge construction process. Social interaction is so important that Siemens  (2006) stresses that a major challenge today is not what you know but who you  know. Social media support creating knowledge collaboratively through its  network and collaborative services (Chatti, Klamma, Jarke & Naeve, 2007).  Social network platforms provide participant information exchange, then  knowledge construction, and finally learning and development (Salmon, 2003). It  is popular that nowadays, according the social network literature researchers have  focused on how to integrate social network tool trends into the knowledge  construction and collaborative learning process to create new knowledge creation  experiences and practice across communities. So the aim of that study is to  present the new framework as “social knowledge co-construction model” based  on online collaborative knowledge construction process and as a social network  system, contributions of Google+ applications for the collaborative knowledge  construction process. The framework includes the integrated of formal and  informal knowledge construction and learning process within a social context with  social networking web system and its applications. As a result, four phases which  are web search, social interaction, shared workplace/environment and team  works/discussion were analyzed and defined to form Social Knowledge Co- Construction Framework. As in the natural knowledge creation process, the  process of the social knowledge co-construction framework is spiral cycle.
