Abstract: Abstract: Unlike well-structured traditional school tasks, authentic, complex, ill-structured problems encourage sharing, and negotiating ideas among learners due to their ill-structured features. Computer supported collaborative learning environments may offer suitable places for such collaborative efforts by fostering interaction between learners. However, interaction that occurs in CSCL should not be taken for granted. All the components of collaborative learning should be taken into careful considerations to develop effective and interactive CSCL environments. Therefore, we propose design principles for problem-driven CSCL based on collaborative learning theory.
