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.
A short-paper session on designing innovative learning environments, spanning embodied game-based math, collaborative argumentation amid misinformation, and shared feedback visualization in simulation debriefing. Several papers examine generative-AI chatbots in computing education, from technology acceptance to effects on fifth graders' computational thinking.
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.
