Title
Cosar: Collaborative Writing of Argumentative Texts
Abstract
Abstract: In the COSAR project (COmputer Supported ARgumentative writing) we study electronic collaborative text production regarding the relation between characteristics of interaction on the one hand and learning and problem solving on the other. A groupware program has been developed to support collaborative writing. This system consists of a basic environment that can be extended with a combination of tools. The experiments with the basic environment have been completed. The first data of the evaluation forms will be presented. The second phase of the project in which tools are added to the basic environment in different combinations is currently in progress. Students are generally enthusiastic about the system. Based on the observations we have made during the experiments we will adapt the system in order to improve the usability and extend the range of subject areas.
