By using Cohere-Jetpack extension Anna could discover and bookmark Ivana’s ideas, and reuse them to create semantic connections between Ivana’s ideas and her ideas. This helped Anna to discover other Websites and ideas relevant to her investigation. By exploiting the description of the type of connection (semantic of the connection) she was also able to identify resources that triggered her critical thinking, since Ivana had labeled them as “challenging” her idea. Moreover from Ivana’s point of view, next time she explored her workspace she discovered a new connection, created by Anna, pointing directly to one of her ideas, and suggesting a new interesting reference to explore. The simple connection that Anna has created has established, from now on, a meaningful link from Anna’s and Ivana’s network of ideas and connections. These ideas and connections can be used by them and by any other learners to enrich their understanding on carbon emissions. In fact any other user navigating that OERs, and with a Cohere-Jetpack add-on installed, will be able to access Anna’s and Ivana’s ideas, semantic connections and Websites directly from the sidebar while they are navigating the Web. <br><br> | By using Cohere-Jetpack extension Anna could discover and bookmark Ivana’s ideas, and reuse them to create semantic connections between Ivana’s ideas and her ideas.

By using Cohere-Jetpack extension Anna, Jack and Rebecca found a way to learn from each other’s work, while caring on with their individual tasks. Moreover the Cohere Jetpack plugin has enabled Anna, Jack and Rebecca to engage in a structured online scholarly discussion on climate change positions. This discussion will surely affect the results of their work in a positive way since they will have been supported, and will have worked not in isolation but in a collaboratively engaging way. Moreover Anna, Jack and Rebecca have directly experienced that there are different world views and positions to consider in their investigation, they have learned also to be self-critical and to defend their positions by basing them on resources and evidence. This scenario gives an example of how the Cohere Jetpack plugin is a tool for learners to exercise their critical thinking and engage in online scholarly discussion.<br><br> | By using Cohere-Jetpack extension Anna, Jack and Rebecca found a way to learn from each other’s work, while caring on with their individual tasks.
