Collaborative Dialogue Technologies in Distance Learning

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NATO ASI F,volume 133))

Abstract

Our previous experiment with the use of Local Area Networks to favour collaborative learning has led us to design and implement an open architecture to support intentional collaborative learning activities such as multi-party simulation and games for cooperative problem solving. This effort is now included in a DELTA European project called CO-LEARN which aims to support various collaborative situations and to give a right place to all the educational agents: tutors, teachers, colleagues at work and others learners. The fields of open and distance learning will be used as an experiment to try remote access through ISDN.
