Abstract

This conceptual paper addresses the need to design tools for supporting regulation in computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL). First, we extend previous work articulating the important role of self-regulation, co-regulation, and shared-regulation in successful collaboration (Hadwin, Järvelä, & Miller, 2011; Järvelä & Hadwin, 2013). Second, we draw on this theoretical framework to address the capacity of CSCL environments to support regulation of collaboration in the form of two types of tools: (a) Scripting tools that structure and sequence collaborative interactions, and (b) group awareness tools that collect, aggregate and reflect information back to learners to facilitate collaboration. Finally, directions for future research of regulation of collaboration and CSCL regulation tools are discussed.
