摘要:In the current century, power and prestige of individual or community are related with their knowledge and the capability to use information effectively. For effective and individualized knowledge construction process, e-Learning design changes to more social and collaborative design with new generation technology (Young, 2011). WE-learning is the combination of mobile learning and e-learning called ubiquitous learning integrated with social networks for collaborative knowledge construction process. Social interaction is so important that Siemens (2006) stresses that a major challenge today is not what you know but who you know. Social media support creating knowledge collaboratively through its network and collaborative services (Chatti, Klamma, Jarke & Naeve, 2007). Social network platforms provide participant information exchange, then knowledge construction, and finally learning and development (Salmon, 2003). It is popular that nowadays, according the social network literature researchers have focused on how to integrate social network tool trends into the knowledge construction and collaborative learning process to create new knowledge creation experiences and practice across communities. So the aim of that study is to present the new framework as “social knowledge co-construction model” based on online collaborative knowledge construction process and as a social network system, contributions of Google+ applications for the collaborative knowledge construction process. The framework includes the integrated of formal and informal knowledge construction and learning process within a social context with social networking web system and its applications. As a result, four phases which are web search, social interaction, shared workplace/environment and team works/discussion were analyzed and defined to form Social Knowledge Co- Construction Framework. As in the natural knowledge creation process, the process of the social knowledge co-construction framework is spiral cycle.
