Abstract

This paper outlines some innovative solutions to the design of ‘collaborative learning patterns’ within the context of open source ‘learning design’ based e-learning systems. The proposed solutions emphasize the design and development of a set of computer-based collaborative patterns reflecting diverse collaboration methods, namely: Team Expectations, Uncommon Commonalities, Roundtable, Numbered Heads Together, Focused Listing, Think-Pair and Share, One minute papers, Jigsaw II and Co-op Co-op. These patterns are content free and could be used as scaffolding elements for the design of collaborative learning activities for online and blended courses. Specific examples of the implementation of these patterns within well-known web-based open source environments that support learning design such as LAMS are also presented.
