Group discussion is one of the common learning activities in the classrooms. However, it’s very difficult for teachers to monitor all their students’ learning process in a discussion activity in class. To address this issue, this study aims to develop a discussion platform, Wediscuss, to aid the students and the teachers to make the discussion activity smoothly, assist students to engage in the discussion soon, and provide the teacher an efficient tool to monitor all of the teams or students. Wediscuss catches the speech and the interaction between all team members, and automatically creates a discussion map about the interactions. Those specific data will help students to reflect more appropriately and support the teacher to monitor the learning status of all students. After developing the initial version of Wediscuss, this study also conducted an initial evaluation of Wediscuss with a discussion activity involving 28 volunteer primary school students. The results showed the participants expressed satisfaction about the perceived usefulness and usability of the Wediscuss. Also, they are willing to use the Wediscuss platform to do discussion activities if they have opportunity. Besides, the participants provided some suggestions for future development of Wediscuss. |
