Collaboration Support

Four long papers explore tools and AI for supporting collaboration, including learning-analytics-augmented meta-discourse for shared epistemic agency and LLM agents that foster children's collaborative reasoning. Additional work covers augmented reality for product design in makerspaces and teacher perspectives on AI-supported collaboration in multilingual classrooms.

Collaborative Learning Processes

Five short papers analyze how collaborative learning unfolds, using methods like Epistemic Network Analysis to model collaborative initiative in STEM simulations and multimodal interactions across jigsaw tasks. Topics range from combining intelligent tutors with concept maps and teachable agents to GenAI-supported interdisciplinary teams and age differences in older-adult learners.

Symposium · ALP 2nd Floor Rear

Designing AI Partner-embedded Learning Environments to Support AI Literacies

This symposium reports on the Institute of Student-AI Teaming (iSAT), which designs AI partners as social collaborators that both facilitate group learning and become objects of inquiry so students can look under the hood of AI systems. Six posters spanning AI design, infrastructure, curriculum, and teacher learning illustrate a multi-state co-design process embedding AI within classroom collaboration to build AI literacy.

Collaborative Learning Research Methods

Five short papers advance methods for studying collaborative learning, from reframing social annotation as a text-embedded analytics ecology to AI-powered knowledge graphs that make Knowledge Forum discourse visible. Other contributions theorize transitional space across individual and collective levels, formalize inquiry scripting, and review GenAI tools for collaboration.

Role of AI in CSCL

Five short papers interrogate AI's evolving roles in collaborative knowledge work, including students' experience of AI as a creative collaborator and a typological framework for AI's epistemic authority in Knowledge Building. Additional talks examine children's epistemic agency in AI science eBooks, activity theory for human-AI teaming, and a three-year cross-community design study.

CSCL Posters - Wednesday Poster Session (In-Person)

In-person CSCL poster session dominated by generative AI in collaborative learning, from teacher-in-the-loop essay scoring and AI lesson-planning to constrained GenAI for deeper learning and agency. Other posters cover multimodal and NLP methods for assessing collaboration, conversational agents in shared reading, and AI tools in arts learning.
