Abstract

The LEAD project stresses that one of the important challenges with regard to technology-enhanced learning is to develop effective networked-computing support for face-to-face collaborative learning. To achieve this one has to gain a deeper understanding of face-to-face collaborative learning and the technology that supports the communicative processes that are involved. The LEAD project will enhance state-of-the-art research by studying this complex interplay within a collaborative classroom setting, an arrangement that has hardly been addressed in educational research and practice.
