Empirically Analysing Knowledge Generation Framework in Student Homophily Through Crowdsourcing

Integrating different perspectives in the generation of knowledge is essential for understanding learning problems. And crowdsourcing provides new approaches to harvest distributed knowledge. However, students are more inclined to connect with people with similar characteristics, and the identity of a group has an impact on cooperative learning performance. Therefore, there is an attempt to integrate the homogeneous students in crowdsourcing and to explore the influence of student homophily knowledge generation framework through teaching experiments for more meaningful and effective participation in the process of knowledge generation. The results demonstrate that homophily can improve students' academic performance, and the knowledge generation framework in crowdsourcing has a positive effect on innovation generation.
