Designing Workspaces to Support Collaborative Learning
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an approach to create structured and shared workspaces supplying functionality to carry out collaborative activities for a range of learning tasks. A workspace is deened in terms of three interrelated components: group, task and colaboration; each one modelling respectively the relevant features for designing the structure and support for a collaborative learning activity. The system has been used to create a number of applications addressing diierent educational goals and target groups.

متن کاملDistributed virtual collaborative environments with Multitouch support: Implementation and Experiences
In this paper, we present a new application framework aimed to support distributed synchronous collaboration using multi-touch interaction. The framework supports 2D and 3D virtual workspaces that enable two or more users to collaboratively or cooperatively manipulate shared objects with multi-touch interfaces. We present two applications developed with the aim to explore 2d/3d immersive collab...
متن کاملCollaborative Discovery Learning of Model Design
Design and simulation environments are tools offering contrasted benefits for discovery learning in multiple domains. However, when these domains are complex the problems that the students have to solve during their learning justify the necessity to carry out the design activity itself in groups. From the perspective of modelling and simulation in collaboration, we present DomoSim-TPC, a system...
