ENA and Markov chains offered complementary views of the same collaborative discourse
Frontiers in Education
What discrete-time Markov chains and ENA each make visible when applied to coded collaborative discourse. Both techniques supported analysis of frequent conceptual connections, but their different visual and analytic affordances licensed different kinds of conclusions about group dynamics. A small illustrative dataset cannot rank the methods universally, and apparent agreement between displays does not mean that transition probability and ENA connection weight estimate the same object.
