Abstract

This paper describes difficulties when tutoring in virtual learning environments. Activity Visualization (AV) is proposed as technology support for greater awareness and understanding of learning processes. Evaluations based on rich experiences from a course have been conducted. The results are positive confirming a need for technology support and indicating that AV is a promising approach.
