Although research in collaborative learning has a fairly long
history, dating back at least to the early work of Piaget and
Vygotsky, it is only recently that workers have begun to apply some
of its findings to the design of computer based learning systems.
The early generation of the le systems focused on their potential
for supporting individual learning: learning could be self paced;
teaching could be adapted to individual learners' needs. This was
certainly the promise of the later generation of intelligent
tutoring systems. However, this promise has yet to be realised. Not
only are there still some very difficult research problems to solve
in providing adaptive learning systems, but there are also some
very real practical constraints on the widespread take up of
individualised computer based instruction. Reseachers soon began to
realise that the organisational, cultural and social contexts of
the classroom have to be taken into account in designing systems to
promote effective learning. Much of the work that goes on in
classrooms is collaborative, whether by design or not. Teachers
also need to be able to adapt the technology to their varying
needs. Developments in technology, such as networking, have also
contributed to changes in the way in which computers may be
envisaged to support learning. In September 1989, a group of
researchers met in Maratea, Italy, for a NATO-sponsored workshop on
"Computer supported collaborative . learning." A total of 20
researchers from Europe (Belgium."
