Globalization and the new economy of the twenty-first century demand the ability to learn and function as part of the increasingly diverse groups. In an interconnected and rapidly changing world, our knowledge of ourselves as individual and group learners becomes more important. Yet the acquisition of knowledge is still primarily viewed as an individual process. Thinking and learning are generally considered individual rather than social or communicative acts. Virtually all the assessment and many aspects of instruction still focus on promoting individual performance and achievement. But we have and we can use tools that help us show how we combine the practices of group learning and the documentation of the learning process and its products, showing powerful learning and teaching to teachers, students, families and the community.
