chattukea
Chattukea is a term used in information science and online education to describe a collaborative knowledge-building method that centers on chat-based discourse. The approach combines real-time and asynchronous chat conversations with structured annotation and synthesis processes to produce organized summaries, hypotheses, and reference lists derived from participants’ contributions. Core features include transcript capture, layered annotation, topic tagging, and a synthesis step that aggregates diverse inputs into coherent outputs. Outputs may take the form of annotated reports, learning briefs, or decision-ready documents.
