Abstract

InterLACE is an innovative web-based computer supported collaborative learning (CSCL) system designed to support high school physical students with co-located collaborative learning in the classroom. InterLACE aims to provide an interactive shared workspace to facilitate student discussion and knowledge building. It allows them to share, visualize, manipulate, and improve upon each other's ideas. It is designed to lower the barriers of implementation of collaborative activities, for both teachers and students. The goal is to create a CSCL that is easy to integrate into the classroom and enables unique forms of participation by all students.
