- Given the advancement of information and communications technologies (ICT), a number of ways of building learning communities in schools have been developed in recent years. Realizing the impact of this new learning approach, six primary schools in Hong Kong engaged in building learning communities in science curriculum. During the science project works, students from different schools participated in knowledge construction using Knowledge Forum, a computer mediated communications (CMC) platform. This paper reports the results of the analysis of students' discussion and interviews of students as well as teachers to explore the processes of knowledge construction and the role of ICT from the different ways that students and teachers experienced in building learning communities through Knowledge Forum. Implications for pedagogical change will also be discussed.
