Our way to Taipei - An analysis of the first ten years of the CSCL community

, and . Proceedings of the CSCL 2005, Taipei, Taiwan, (May 2005)

Abstract

Ten years of international CSCL conferences give proper reason to reflect on the development of the CSCL community. Based on an analysis of conference proceedings, lists of participants and lists of program committee members, this paper provides insights about the development of the CSCL community in its first decade. A focus is set on the continuity of active and passive membership, the geographical distribution and the international connectivity of the community. Contrary to our expectations, only a relatively small number of people participate continuously in the community. Concerning the geographical distribution we found that the community is increasingly international in conference participation, authors, and program committees. The international connectivity of the community is also increasing which can be seen in a growing number of citations and co-authorships across different countries. These results can serve as a basis for further cultivation of the CSCL community.
