English summary: Knowledge has become one of the most important resources in many economic, technological and academic domains. To understand the impact and potential of this development towards a knowledge-based economy and technology in the respective fields, we have to take a closer look at the processes responsible for bringing about new knowledge. Work in this field reveals that cooperative forms of learning are among the major sources of such knowledge. Consequently, this book supports the claim that learning is a process of cooperative knowledge creation and not simply a process of knowledge transfer. The focus of the collection of articles in this book is on how communication, cooperation, negotiation, knowledge creation, and innovation can be integrated into a comprehensive notion of learning. Cognition and technology both play a major role in the integration of these knowledge processes, as they are ultimately the foundation on which any form of cooperative learning is based. The articles in this book provide an overview of the state-of-the-art approaches, models and technologies in the highly dynamic field of cooperative learning. They cover the subject matter from both a theoretical and a practical perspective and offer several best practice examples of some of the key work being carried out in this field. German text. German description: Wissen ist zur wichtigsten Ressource in vielen okonomischen, technologischen und wissenschaftlichen Bereichen geworden. Um zu verstehen, welche Konsequenzen und welches Potenzial diese Entwicklung zu einer Wissensgesellschaft hat, ist ein neues Verstandnis fur die Prozesse der Wissensgenerierung notig. Aktuelle Forschungen bestatigen, dass kooperative Lernformen eine primare Quelle neuen Wissens sind. Daher versteht dieses Buch Lernen nicht als blossen Wissenstransfer, sondern als kooperative Wissensgenerierung. Wie kann man Kommunikation, Kooperation, Verhandlung, Knowledge Creation und Innovation zu einem integrierten Bild des Lernens zusammenfuhren? Welche Rolle spielen kognitive Prozesse und (Wissens-)Technologie? Dieser Band gibt einen Uberblick uber die aktuellen Ansatze, Modelle und Technologien im dynamischen Feld des kooperativen Lernens. Die Artikel sprechen sowohl aus theoretischer als auch aus praktischer Perspektive und bieten eine Vielzahl an konkreten Anwendungsbeispielen aus diesem Bereich.
