The Contribution of Collaborative Tasks to the Development of Mediation Competencies through Learning Management Systems

Abstract

In our digital era the adoption of innovative pedagogical approaches is based on the active involvement through collaborative tasks of the participants in the pedagogical process. In this context, mediation skills in the process of cultivating learning strategies play an essential role to the educational process and upgrade the contribution of the mentor-teacher, since the socio-emotional dimension of interpersonal relationships positively contributes to awareness and self-awareness. In addition, in an action-oriented approach, the creation of pedagogical scenarios through Learning Management Systems focuses on mediation skills through the exchange of experiences, skills and good practices, enabling each participant to exploit the group’s potential and to create strategic partnerships, which bring added value to the dynamic integration of the learners in social and professional frameworks.
