Abstract

“Meta Communication” is the process between message designers when they are talking about the learning process, as distinguished from their articulation of the “substantive” learning, itself. To understand knowledge building it is essential to distinguish learning—“the process through which the cultural capital of a society is made available to successive generations” from knowledge building—the deliberate effort to increase the cultural capital. These include collaborative learning, guided discovery, project-based learning, communities of learners, communities of practice, and anchored instruction. Communicative encounters between groups and individuals from different cultures are variously described as cross-cultural, intercultural, multicultural or even transcultural. Researchers use terms such as the Internet, WWW, VLE, CMC, ICTs, HCI, CHI or CSCW in explorations of technologies at the communicative interface. This chapter examines and focuses on some issues and questions relating to how the use of meta communication concept should be functional and influences for knowledge building process in Distance education.
