| Research Abstract |
1. Theoretical background: We discussed the theoretical frameworks of this research (Suzuki, 2003(in Japanese)). We published the basic report of this research (Suzuki, 2003(in English)).
2. Developing a CSCL environment: We developed an "eMATE" as a CSCL environment based on e-Learning system (Nakahara et al., 2002: Nishimori et al., 2003)
3. Developing an analysis system of data in a CSCL environment (Kasai et al., 2003)
4. Practical research: We have done practical research in teacher education programs (Nagata et al., 2002a:2002b:2003(in Japanese): Suzuki et al., 2002a:2002b; Suzuki, 2003 (in Japanese); Suzuki, 2003(in English)).
5. Results: Results of basic research Collaborative learning should involve tasks that facilitate cognitive conflicts among undergraduate students. An instructor should foster the atmosphere that enhances undergraduate students doing collaborative learning. Results of practical research A CSCL environment fostered college students' conversations about scientific knowledge. Social interactions via a CSCL environment may enhance the undergraduate students' understanding of scientific knowledge. Undergraduate students learned a lot from collaboration with graduate students by using a CSCL environment in the course.
6. More Research: We plan to explore adapting the results to the context of junior high school classes(Imai et al., 2003).
