Abstract

This article presents i-collaboration 3.0, a framework that supports the promotion of personalized distributed collaboration between students that collaborate to learn by using their Web 2.0 tools of choice (MSN, Twitter, Facebook,...). The framework is an extension of i-collaboration, a conceptual model that used Virtual Learning Companions (VLC) and the MBTI personality test to personalize learners' experience in VLE. I-Collaboration 3.0 has a conceptual model that includes the pedagogical objective of the framework, the VLC new responsibilities in the framework and the students' contextual information modeling in order to ensure a more interactive experience for the Learner. Moreover, it counts with an infrastructure already implemented that is compliant with the model and that includes the integration of the framework with Twitter (implementation of VLC as a Twitter user, where students can make questions by @mentions), MSN (implementation of VLC as a MSN user, where students can add him as a MSN contact and make questions) and Websites (implementation of VLC as a chatterbot - can be integrated with any website or blog).
