“…Pembelajaran daring merupakan salah satu strategi pembelajaran jarak jauh dengan memanfaatkan internet sebagai sarana perantaranya (Chae et al, 2019). Pembelajaran daring memiliki manfaat yang beragam mulai dari kemudahan penerapan, efektivitas biaya, kecepatan dalam menyediakan informasi yang terbaru, hingga kemungkinan untuk berkolaborasi dalam membangun interaksi antar siswa pada saat yang bersamaan (Chae et al, 2019;Panayırcı, 2016). Pembelajaran daring pun tidak hanya dalam bentuk tatap muka, melainkan dapat dengan beragam variasi lain seperti bimbingan, simulasi, maupun aktivitas lainnya.…”

The pandemic made important difference in the society of education in Indonesia. To protect the safety and health of participants and educators, a significant shift from face-to-face to distant learning is required. This alteration has an impact on participant-educator relationship, making distant learning less effective. One of the main reasons for the long distance learning problem was that the learning model was less inventive and resulted in lower motivation. This study used a qualitative approach to collect data from 34 geography teachers using an open questionnaire to investigate the challenges of remote learning and teachers' expectations for support from the government, school administrators, and geography MGMPs. To incorporate the findings, a thematic analysis was performed. The study's findings show that, aside from information technology, the most significant problem is the difficulty in establishing learning models due to the restricted capacity of human resources in schools.

Computer-supported collaborative learning (CSCL) seeks to improve students' learning with the support of technology. Although CSCL facilitates an enriching environment for cooperation, CSCL activities might be affected by asymmetrical participation. Group awareness tools have proven to enhance learners' interactions, balancing the levels of participation and increasing the learning outcomes. This study investigates the effect of a group awareness tool (GAT) on participation within synchronous CSCL activities in the context of extracurricular activities. We designed a quasi-experimental within-subject study (GAT exposure and control condition) and tested an ad hoc GAT in a web-based CSCL platform with high school students (N = 140). The measured variables included the effect of the GAT on students' participation and the quality of discussion. A complementary analysis evaluated students' perceptions of the tool. Results revealed that the implementation of a GAT encourages students to take part in CSCL discussions without explicitly hindering its quality. Even so, the balance of participation was not significantly affected. Students further reported that they found the GAT useful to regulate collaboration. The results from the study provide further knowledge of the functioning of group awareness tools in secondary education and share an insight into how students perceive them.

Groupthink puts pressure on individuals to conform to social norms, but anonymity has been found to reduce or lessen such influence. Apart from anonymity, the significance of the topic and self-censorship may or may not contribute to the influence of groupthink. Groupthink has been studied in the context of social media using various approaches, but to date it remains unclear how much and to what extent it influences the conflict among users within this cultural context. This chapter describes approaches to studying the influence of groupthink on the users of an open social media platform (e.g., Twitter) and proposes a methodology for conducting a study. Using data from a selected hashtag, it reports on the application of theory to research, considers the role and influence of groupthink, and discusses the implications of the findings for reconceptualizing approaches to the study of new media.
