A Dialogical Approach for Learning Communities Between Positioning and Reformulation

Building intersubjectivity in blended problem-solving tasks

“…Despite the differences, all dyads build an intersubjective framework within which they negotiate the meaning of the task, taking into account each other's thinking and anticipating goal-directed activities. As Rommetveit (1979) maintained, this sensemaking process also concerns the way participants position themselves-the representation of Self and Other in the discursive construction of the intersubjective space (Annese & Traetta, 2018).…”

“…We interpreted disagreements, oppositions, coalitions, and opposing positions in both tasks as essential for the intersubjective dynamics, since they enabled the participants' argumentative and critical capacity (Freundlieb, Hudson, & Rundell, 2004). In the discursive interplay positions, such as the exotopic one, the appropriation of other voices, the reciprocal appropriation of positions and the discursive positions, function as mediators of the meaning production (Beraldo, 2018) and are crucial for the awareness of the Self and the Other in the discourse (Annese & Traetta, 2018;Glaveanu, 2019). Teachers and educators could extract pedagogical directions from these elements to sustain intersubjectivity when proposing collaborative problem-solving tasks in blended contexts (Biesta, 1999;Murphy & Brown, 2012).…”

Russian Formal and Informal Education: Siberian Experience of a Dialogue of Cultures

“…Russian and foreign literature has accumulated sufficient material on the general problems of the formation and development of regional education in Russia. The dialogue of cultures phenomenon, including its history, basic principles, and concepts, is covered in the publications of Annese and Traetta (2018), Buriak (2016) Bakhtin (1919), the author of the dialogue concept foundations, and some theoretical approaches of multiple foreign authors. The main idea of our analysis is based on these principles and is that no culture in the world was created in isolation from other cultures and civilizations; only those cultures able to "exchange" their achievements with other cultures in dialogue have survived and developed.…”
