The discussion board online learning community approach was developed to transform a traditional face-to-face doctoral course into a blended learning environment centered in dialogue, inquiry, critical thinking, valuing diversity, collaboration, reflection, and deep and life-long learning.

What approach has the potential to produce profound student outcomes and deep learning? What approach mentally engages learners with clear, focused, meaningful content and makes the acquisition of knowledge and skill more efficient, effective, and appealing while creating an instructional environment that relies on collaborative forms of learning, sharing, inquiry, and group participation?  \nThis paper describes a discussion board online learning community approach used to cultivate a doctoral community of inquiry and practice in a blended learning environment. This approach, known as the doc (discussion board online community) approach, was developed to transform a traditional face-to-face doctoral course into a blended learning environment centered in dialogue, inquiry, critical thinking, valuing diversity, collaboration, reflection, and deep and life-long learning. This work benefits instructors and education practitioners who are looking for an effective approach that produces deep learning and builds individual and collective student efficacy and capacity (content, process, and leadership) by creating powerful virtual networks that shift facilitation of discourse and ownership for learning from the instructor to students.  \nNCPEA Education Leadership Review, Vol. 14, No. 3– October 2013 ISSN: 1532-0723 © 2013 National Council of Professors of Educational Administration  \nTheoretical Perspectives  \nThe doc approach was built on the theoretical underpinnings of communities of inquiry and practice, cultivating a questioning and learning culture through knowledge and learning networks, and facilitative leadership and dialogue. Advances in distributed-learning platforms and new theories of culture-mediated cognition have stimulated interest in the use of learning communities among instructional designers (Wilson, Ludwig-Hardman, Thornam, & Dunlap, 2004) . A number of workplace innovations have occurred as a result of Lave and Wenger’s (1991) communities-of-practice model, which has been acknowledged as “an organization’s most versatile and dynamic knowledge source and form’s the basis of an organization’s ability to know and learn”(Wenger, 1998, p. 2) . Learning communities share commonalities with communities of practice in that they are complex systems where control is not centered in hierarchical authority but rather is distributed among participants (Backroad Connections Pty Ltd., 2003) . According to Ludwig-Hardman (2003), “An online learning community is a group of people, connected via technology-mediated communication, who actively engage one another in collaborative learner-centered activities to intentionally foster the creation of knowledge, while sharing a numb","cbCaim1pbnEeF3tG","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaim1pbnEeF3tG","pdf",309446,18,"English","# Introduction\n# Theoretical Perspectives","[{\"question\":\"What approach does the paper propose for doctoral blended learning?\",\"answer\":\"It proposes a discussion board online learning community approach, called the doc approach, to transform a traditional face-to-face doctoral course into a blended environment centered on dialogue and inquiry.\"},{\"question\":\"What learning principles does the doc approach emphasize?\",\"answer\":\"It emphasizes dialogue, inquiry, critical thinking, valuing diversity, collaboration, reflection, and deep lifelong learning to support learners’ engagement.\"},{\"question\":\"Which theoretical ideas support the discussion board community model?\",\"answer\":\"The paper connects the approach to communities of inquiry and practice, and uses the Community of Inquiry (CoI) model, where learning emerges through cognitive, social, and teaching presence.\"}]","Cultivating a Doctoral Community of Inquiry and Practice - Designing and Facilitating Discussion Board Online Learning Communities | PDF",1792093314,45]
