Abstract
Lecture recording has become a widespread way of producing e-learning contents. The resulting documents, however, are usually limited with respect to collaborative learning. This chapter introduces the concept of scripted anchored discussion as a means to facilitate net-based group collaboration around multimedia lectures. Discussion contributions are anchored at specific spatial and temporal positions within the document, allowing both document-centred and discourse-centred views of the discussion. Cooperation scripts are used to structure and sequence the discussion process. A formal model is pro-posed to represent discussion scripts. Furthermore, we explore ways to fade out scripting instructions in order to adapt to users’ increasing internalization of the scripts.
