Abstract

This paper argues for the need of different strategies to explore and promote innovative collaborative educational technologies. One strategy can be to expand the role of design in research. By using design processes that guide the realization of products helps to balance the different needs of researchers and practitioners while addressing the challenges of usability, sociability, and learnability. An improved design process is presented that suggests solutions to tackle these challenges for CSCL.
