Title
Research on Collaborative Planning and Reflection - Methods and Tools in the Metafora Project.
Abstract
Collaboration in complex learning scenarios does not succeed automatically without structuring the learning process. In the literature there have been several means proposed to support collaborative learning: scaffolds, scripts, activity structures and reflection prompts are among these approaches. Scenarios that prompt and support reflection during the learning process proved to be effective for collaborative learning. In the Metafora project our approach is to support students in the process of learning to learn together (L2L2) by means of dedicated tools for planning and reflection. These tools allow students to organize their learning process in a self-regulated way. In this paper we will present the pedagogical background, the supporting tools and underlying design, and the research methodology used in Metafora to gain insights on how collaborative planning, learning, and reflecting interact. An extended example of qualitative analysis is given to illustrate our approach.
