Processing and Transforming Collaborative Learning Protocols for Learner's Reflection and Tutor's Evaluation
Proc. of Workshop on Artificial Intelligence in Computer Supported Collaborative Learning at European Conference on Articificial Intelligence ECAI 2004, Valencia, , (2004)Abstract
This paper discusses the potential of processing and anal-ysis of collaborative learning protocols, which in the first place are represented as low-level logfiles of actions in collaborative learning environments. These protocols can be abstracted, analysed, and aug-mented to provide the users with feedback about the collaboration process. We present several techniques we implemented which may be combined to support learner s self-reflection as well as tutors in evaluating the process. sent from learners machines. In the first place these logfiles are at a very low abstraction level and of little use for teachers, learners, and even the system for creating an understanding of the collabo-ration going on: Depending on the content of messages transmitted the actions can be either related to domain objects (such as chang-ing the content of a node in a concept map) or even lower-level as user-interface events (such as mouseclick at position (100,50)).
