A short-paper session on group dynamics in collaborative learning, examining how active participation, role enactment, and disciplinary engagement unfold over time. Methods include implicit-scripts analysis, physiological synchrony, AR-based inquiry, and socially shared regulation in STEM.
Short papers on collaborative STEM inquiry span engineering notebooks scaffolding middle school robotics, multi-user immersive VR for science learning, and collaboration quality in computational modeling. Threads also include teacher knowledge building via KNILT minicourses and ordered-network-analysis-supported reflective assessment.
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.
An in-person poster session spanning collaborative learning research, with strong threads on AI literacy games, epistemic agency, and knowledge building alongside SEL, VR and maker collaboration, and equity-focused design. Studies range from a Turing-test game and weaving-based ML curricula to ceremonial Indigenous designs and belonging infrastructure in research-practice partnerships.
