Ricardo-Abad Barros-Castro, José-Rodrigo Córdoba-Pachón

Research output: Working paper

Abstract

This paper presents a framework to help educators and designers improve their
design, experiences and management of computer supported collaborative learning
(CSCL). With increasing interest in this subject, a number of aspects (dimensions)
related to both learning and the use of technology arise. How these aspects can be
addressed in an integrated, comprehensive and inclusive way is a key challenge for
CSCL. Using the idea of CSCL as a system, we relate a number of aspects in CSCL
through a framework that aims to support future development and research. The
paper concludes with implications on how to continue improving CSCL with the help
of systems-oriented thinking
