Journals ACM SIGCAS Computers and Society Volume 32 Issue 3

Discussion boards are often seen as an extension of the traditional classroom however it is our contention that the true potential of this medium for adult learners in a postgraduate setting lies in extending the learni ng space in new and different ways. Adopting the concept of the virtual sphere as a 'third space', one that is less formal than the established academic world, enables us to see the discussion board not as a teaching tool but as an enabler, extending the learning space by allowing dialogue and reflection to take place beyond the physical time and space constraints of the classroom walls. This is re-enforced by adopting the principles of emancipatory pedagogy and communicative action, which allows us to form a model for the use of online discussion boards that removes the systemic distortions caused by the steering media of academic regulation and pre-defined learning outcomes and by moving beyond the limitations of constructivist pedagogies, leading to the creation of a learning space where dialogue and reflective learning amongst a community of learners is promoted.
