Abstract

This work-in-progress presents a World Wide Web information space and environment for "making thinking public" and constructing a shared meaning, essential elements in both collaborative learning and conflict resolution. Nontraditional learners learn collaboratively as they study conflict resolution through the context, language, metaphors, and frames of two radically conflicting perspectives. The space encourages making explicit otherwise implicit values, beliefs and assumptions, reframing conflict and reflecting on conceptual change emerging from collaboration.
