Argumentation, Discourse, and Agency

Papers examine argumentation, discourse, and agency across settings, from learner feedback agency and laypeople's evaluation of online health information to thinking routines in EFL film discussions. Additional talks address facilitation dilemmas in teacher video clubs and learner engagement in LLM-supported complex-systems simulations.

Collaborative problem-solving

A paper session on collaborative problem-solving, modeling how dialogue, metacognitive regulation, and knowledge building unfold during group work in math and other domains. Studies use methods such as ordered network analysis and Hidden Markov Models, and examine collaboration-competition dynamics and the emergence of flexible strategies.

Collaboration with AI

Papers investigate human-AI collaboration in learning, comparing peer versus AI assistance in graph theory and examining cognitive, social, and metacognitive dimensions of student-student-LLM problem solving. Other talks design multi-agent AI systems and use deliberately biased chatbots to prepare teachers for collaboration.

Regulation and Support

Four long papers use multimodal data to study how emotions and teacher support are regulated during collaborative learning. Topics range from emotion regulation in student dyads building computational models to teacher orchestration load, proximity effects, and scaffolding via classroom chatbots.

Epistemic Authority and Agency

Four papers examining how authority and agency are distributed among students, teachers, and AI tools during learning. Threads include authority in elementary science modeling, how students remix AI chatbots into dialogic tools, epistemic agency in student-LLM math problem solving, and analytics-supported reflective assessment for pre-service teachers.
