Classification of primary and incisional abdominal wall hernias
A classification for primary and incisional abdominal wall hernias is needed to allow comparison of publications and future studies on these hernias. It is important to know whether the populations described in different studies are comparable.Comparative StudyConsensus Development ConferenceJournal ArticleReviewSCOPUS: ar.jinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishe
Group decision making emerging from the course of action. A situated perspective on face to face computer supported collaborative problem solving in the classroom.
Cultural psychology, linguistic anthropology and sociology
of knowledge have demonstrated that cognitive processes do
not take place only in individual minds, but depend on the specific
task performed, the tools and artefacts mediating the activity
and the knowledge distributed among individuals in social
contexts (Andriessen, Baker, Suthers, 2003; Cole, 1996;
Engeström, 1999; Goodwin, 2003). Thus, cognitive actions,
tasks and tools are always part of a system, situated in a larger
social context of activity.
From this perspective, this article focuses on micro-genetic
group decision making (GDM) processes taking place during computer-supported collaborative problem solving activities in
the classroom
