Individual results of analysis of transcripts of an OAD can provide insights different from those gained by focusing on aggregate measures of group behaviours . In this case, we focused on individual behaviours associated with Problem Formulation and Resolution ( PFR) in a one month long OAD with seven graduate students . The transcripts of each participant were analysed for patterns of PFR behaviours using a previously designed instrument. Individual profiles of t he seven participants were created. The paper provides examples of how the approach facilitated identification and comparison of individual weaknesses and strengths . Also provided are examples of how individual profiles might be useful in professional development and instructional contexts for formative or summative assessment purposes .  \nRé sumé : L’article pré sente un exemple illustré d’une méthode consistant à cré er et à déclarer des profils d’engagement individuels envers des comportements particuliers dans le cad re d’une discussion électronique asynchrone ( DEA) . Chaque ré sultat des analyses de transcription d’une DEApeut donner lieu à un aperçu différent de celui obtenu en se concentrant sur  \ndes mesures globales de comportements en groupe . Dans le pré sent cas, nous nous concentrons sur les comportements individuels associés à la formulation et à la ré solution de problèmes ( FRP) dans le cad re d’une DEA qui s ’est étendue sur une pé rio de d’un mois à laquelle partici paient sept diplômé s . Nous avons analysé les transcriptions de c haque participant en cherchant des tendances de comportements de FRP au moyen d’un instrument identifié au pré alable . Des profils individuels de c hacun des sept participants ont ét é créés . L’article illustre comment la métho de facilitel’identification et la comparaison de c hacune des forces et des faiblesses . Il pré sente aussi comment chacun des profils peut s ’avé rer utile dans le cadre du perfectionnement professionnel ainsi que des contextes d’instruction aux fins de l’évaluation formative ou sommative .  \nIntroduction  \nContent analysis of online asynchronous discussions ( OADs) first received attention in the pivotal work of Henri (1992) who proposed a seminal model for the analysis of dimensions of the learning process . Since then, researchers have continued to use models and instruments that define processes or indicators of t he particular construct under study to identify instances of particular behaviours in the transcripts of OADs . Some studies have analysed the construct of critical thinking ( e .g., Newman, Johnson, Cochrane & Webb, 1996) . Gunawardena, Lowe and Anderson (1997) and Kanuka and Anderson (1998) used an interaction analysis model to analyse knowledge construction. Hara, Bonk and Angeli (2000) used Henri's model to conduct content analysis of a discussion for five dime","cbCaic5SXo09G6nL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaic5SXo09G6nL","pdf",391563,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Content analysis approaches for OADs\n## Aggregate reporting versus individual profiling","[{\"question\":\"What does the paper propose about online asynchronous discussions (OADs)?\",\"answer\":\"The paper proposes creating and reporting individual engagement profiles for particular behaviours within an OAD, rather than relying only on aggregate group measures.\"},{\"question\":\"How were individual engagement profiles generated in the study?\",\"answer\":\"Transcripts for each of the seven graduate students were analysed for patterns of Problem Formulation and Resolution (PFR) behaviours using a previously designed instrument.\"},{\"question\":\"Why are individual profiles useful compared with aggregate results?\",\"answer\":\"Individual profiles help identify and compare specific strengths and weaknesses and can support professional development and instructional decision-making for formative or summative assessment.\"}]","Profiling individual discussants’ behaviours in online asynchronous discussions - Spring 32(2) | PDF",1792085482,48]
