| Abstract | One issue of concern to teachers is the effect of teaching strategies and students’ cognitive style on knowledge construction via online discussions in social networks. This study aimed to explore which teaching strategies lead to better learning performance and which cognitive styles affect learning from teaching strategies based on online discussions in a social network setting. Participants in the study engaged in four discussion activities: an abstract writing (AW) discussion, a collaborative problem-solving-based discussion, a project-based discussion, and a peer-assessment discussion, and the participation was used to facilitate comparisons between each group. The following research questions were examined: (a) what are the differences in knowledge construction behavior among students with different cognitive styles in different online discussions according to quantitative content analysis? (b) Are there different patterns of knowledge construction behavior among students with different cognitive styles in different online discussions? We found that students in the Serialist groups showed better performance in terms of the number and the diversity of knowledge construction behaviors. Further, in terms of teaching strategies, AW discussion activities led to more negotiation, coordination, compromise, co-construction, and knowledge construction behaviors, while problem-solving-based discussion activities led to more information acquisition and sharing. We discuss the results and offer suggestions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
