| Abstract: | Different research traditions describe the implied rather than acknowledged dispute between individual agency and collective activity. The ability of an individual to take action has a positive effect on the functioning of a social system. Initiative is a praised self-controlled quality and inter-subjective relations between people and reactions to another person’s input are crucial for the main activity. I this chapter I draw on experiences of digital software deployed for facilitating teaching and learning. |
| Summary in Swedish: | Det finns en ofta implicit utforskad motsättning mellan individuella initiativ och kollektiva verksamheter. Individens förmåga att påverka i samhället stimulerar hela systemet. Initiativförmåga är en högt värderad egenskap i västerländska samhällen. Här undersöker jag hur en klok IT-användning kan förmedla samarbete och lärande. |
